DOUBLE INSULATED APPLIANCE

This appliance is provided with double insulation. Use only identical replacement parts.
Servicing for Double Insulated Appliances
A double-insulated appliance is marked with one or more of the following: the words "Double
Insulation" or "Double Insulated" or the Double Insulation symbol (Figure 1).
In a double insulated appliance, two systems of insulation are provided instead of grounding. No grounding
means is provided on a double-insulated appliance, nor should a means for grounding be added to the
appliance. Servicing a double-insulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and
should be done only by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance
must be identical to the parts they replace.

POLARIZATION INSTRUCTIONS

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider then the other).
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any
way.
A 2-conductor, type SJT-A/SJT, power supply cord of adequate size must be used for safety, and to
prevent loss of power and overheating. Use the Table A to determine A.W.G. wire size required. To
determine ampere rating of your vacuum, refer to nameplate located on motor cover.
Before using appliance, inspect power cord for loose or exposed wires and damaged insulation. Make any needed
repairs or replacements before using your appliance. Use only three-wire outdoor extension cords which have
three-prong grounding-type plugs and three-pole receptacles which accept the extension cord's plug. Be sure the
extension cord connection does not come in contact with liquid.
NOTE: STATIC SHOCKS ARE COMMON IN DRY AREAS OR WHEN THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY OF THE AIR IS LOW.
THIS IS ONLY TEMPORARY AND DOES NOT AFFECT THE USE OF THE APPLIANCE. TO REDUCE THE FREQUENCY
OF STATIC SHOCKS IN YOUR HOME, THE BEST REMEDY IS TO ADD MOISTURE TO THE AIR WITH A CONSOLE OR
INSTALLED HUMIDIFIER.
Unpack the Indoor/Outdoor Vac from its shipping carton and remove any loose parts. Before the shipping
carton is discarded, make sure that all loose parts and literature have been removed.
The Indoor/Outdoor Vac comes partially assembled. Before operation, the handle and collection bag must
be attached.
