Electrical Safety

1. Ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protection should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for this electric wet/dry vacuum. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protection and may be used for this measure of safety.

2. Make sure that the mains voltage matches that listed on the unit’s rating label. Using the improper voltage can damage the motor and injure the user.

3. To prevent electric shock, use only with an extension cord suitable for indoor use only, such as SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A, SJW-A, SJOW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A.
   Before use, check that the extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, make sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
   WARNING
   Electric shock may cause SEVERE INJURY or DEATH. Heed these warnings:
   • Do not allow any part of the electric wet/dry vacuum to make contact with water while it is in operation. If the appliance becomes wet while turned off, wipe dry before starting.
   • Do not use an extension cord over 25 ft. The wet/ dry vacuum comes equipped with a 6 ft power cable. Combined cord length must not exceed 31 ft. Any extension cord must be 18-gauge (or heavier) to safely power the wet/dry vacuum.
   • Do not touch the appliance or its plug with wet hands or while standing in water. Wearing rubber boots offers some protection.
   EXTENSION CORD CHART

4. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (i.e. one blade is wider than the other). Use this appliance only with a polarized UL-, CSA- or ETLlisted extension cord recommended for indoor use only.
   The appliance plug will fit into a polarized extension cord only one way. If the appliance plug does not fit fully into the extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, obtain a correct polarized extension cord. A polarized extension cord will require the use of a polarized wall outlet. The extension cord plug will fit into the polarized wall outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the wall outlet, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper wall outlet. Do not modify the appliance plug, extension cord receptacle or extension cord plug in any way.

5. To prevent the appliance cord from disconnecting from the extension cord during operation, make a knot with the two cords as shown in Table 1.
   Table 1. Method of Securing Extension Cord
   

6. Do not abuse the cord. Never pull the wet/dry vacuum by the cord or yank the cord to disconnect it from the receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil and sharp edges.

Double-Insulated Appliances
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 doubleinsulated appliance requires extreme care and knowledge of the system, and should be performed only by qualified service personnel at an authorized Snow Joe® + Sun Joe® dealer. Replacement parts for a double- insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they replace. A double- insulated appliance is marked with the words “Double Insulation” or “Double Insulated.” The symbol (square within a square) may also be marked on the appliance.

DOUBLE-INSULATED: GROUNDING NOT REQUIRED. WHEN SERVICING, USE ONLY IDENTICAL REPLACEMENT PARTS.
This electric wet/dry vacuum is double-insulated, eliminating the need for a separate grounding system. Use only identical replacement parts. Read the instructions before servicing double-insulated appliances. Use this wet/dry vacuum only as described in this manual.
