SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
(Only for grounded appliances):
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.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated in figure A below. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug.
No adapter should be used with this appliance.
(Only for double-insulated, cord-connected appliances):
SERVICING OF DOUBLE-INSULATED APPLIANCES
A double insulated appliance is marked with one of the following: The words “DOUBLE INSULATION” or “DOUBLE INSULATED” or the double insulation symbol (square within a square).
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 by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they replace.
MAINTENANCE
Always keep the vacuum cleaner in a dry place. The cleaner is designed for continuous heavy work. Depending on the number of running hours – the dust filters should be replaced. The dust bag must be replaced at the same time the Main filter (sack filter) is replaced/cleaned. Keep the container clean with a dry cloth, and a small amount of spray polish. Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.
Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If appliance is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left outdoors or dropped into water, return it to a service center.
While the machine is in use do not pull or carry by the cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners. Keep cord away from heated surfaces.
The size and quality of the dust bag and filters affect the machine efficiency. Use of non original dust bags or non original filters can cause restricted air flow which may lead to machine overload.
This machine is equipped with a thermal cut-out to protect the motor and other vital machine parts from overheating. Should the machine cut out, you will have to wait at least 5-10 minutes for it to automatically reset. While you are waiting, switch the machine off and unplug it, then check the hose, dust bag and filters to be sure that nothing is blocking the flow of air through the machine.
When cleaning is performed roll up the extension cord starting at the machine end and store it at the machine belt by snapping the nylon tie around the cord.
IMPORTANT WARNINGS

- This machine is not suitable for picking up health endangering dust, unless all special authorised local/state federal precautions are complied with.
- This machine is for dry use only and shall not be used or stored outdoors in wet conditions. Store indoors between max. 60°C (degrees centigrade) and min. 0°C (degrees centigrade) 140°Fahrenheit / 32°Fahrenheit..
- The machine must not be used for the suction of water or other liquids.
- Live conductors must not be vacuum cleaned by the machine for dry dust before their current has been switched off. This is to avoid creating a shortcircuit through the dust remaining in the nozzles and tubes.
- The machine must not be used for picking up combustible or explosive materials, nor should it be used in an explosive atmosphere.
- Under no circumstances should the machine be used for picking up hot material. In particular the machine must not be used for cleaning open and closed fireplaces, ovens or similar objects that contain warm or glowing ashes.
