IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1 Rev. 03/08
When using your Commercially Rated Upright Vacuum, basic safety precautions should always
be observed, including the following:
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug
must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person
if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding
attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated at right. Make sure that the
appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the
plug. No adaptor should be used with this appliance.
