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 Vac is for use on a nominal 120-volt
circuit, and has a grounded plug that
looks like the plug shown. A temporary
adapter that looks like the adapter shown
may be used to connect this plug to a
2-pole receptacle, as shown. If a properly
grounded outlet is not available, the
temporary adapter should only be used
until a properly grounded outlet can be
installed by a qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the
like, extending from the adapter, must be
connected to a permanent ground such
as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used, it must be
held in place by a metal screw.

Introduction
This Vac is rated for commercial and
household use. This Wet/Dry Vac is
supplied with a three-layer fine dust filter.
It can be used not only to pick up
material like sawdust and gravel but also
ultra fine material like drywall dust and
cold fireplace ash. These types of
materials are so small they would pass
through traditional filters.
