WORK AREA

1. Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate electric products in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust.
3. Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while mounting or maintaining the 3- speed air cleaner.

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

1. Grounded products must be plugged into an outlet properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. Never remove the grounding prong or modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. If the product should be electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user.
2. Double insulated products are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than 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 a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
3. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
4. Do not expose this product to rain or wet conditions. Water entering an electric product will increase the risk of electric shock.

GROUNDING

**WARNING!
** Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug provided with the product. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the product if the power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a service facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician

GROUNDED PRODUCT: PRODUCTS WITH THREE PRONG PLUGS

1. Products marked with “Grounding as Required” have a three wire cord and three prong grounding The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the product should electrically malfunction or break down, __grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock. (See Figure A.)
2. The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the grounding system in the The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected to the product’s grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically “live” terminal. (See Figure A.)
3. Your product must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like those in the following illustration. (See Figure A.)

EXTENSION CORDS

1. Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord. Double Insulated tools can use either a two or three wire extension cord.
2. As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible product damage.
3. The smaller the gauges number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord.
4. When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, make sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required.
5. If you are using one extension cord for more than one product, add the name plate amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum cord size.
6. If you are using an extension cord outdoors, make sure it is marked with words to indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
7. Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified electrician before using it.
8. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.
