Polarization Instruction
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this appliance has 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 the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Servicing of Double-Insulated Appliances
This product is double,-insulated, eliminating the need for a separate grounding system. Use only identical replacement parts. Read the instructions for servicing double-insulated wet/dry vacuums before servicing.
A double-insulated appliance is marked with one or more of the following: the words “DOUBLE INSULATION” or “DOUBLE INSULATED.” or the double insulation symbol (square within a square).

CAUTION Do not vacuum drywall dust or fireplace soot or ash with standard wet/dry filter. This is a very fine dust which will not be captured by the filter and may cause damage to the motor. When vacuuming fine dust, use a fine dust filter (sold separately).

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 only by qualified service personnel.
Replacement parts for a double-insulated appliance must be identical to the parts they replace.
Do not use without filters in place.
