TYPICAL VACUUM SYSTEM INSTALLATION GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current to reduce the risk of electrical shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

POWER UNIT INSTALLATION POWER UNIT INSTALLATION 1.0 POWER UNIT LOCATION AND CONNECTION The Vacuum System Power Unit is normally placed in the garage (best location), utility room, or basement. Attic locations should be avoided (A) if canister is difficult for the user to service, (B) where temperature exceeds 140 degrees. The Power Unit should be located out of traffic while still accessible for emptying of dirt canister. 2.

CAUTION: 120VAC 240VAC NEMA 5-15R NEMA 6-15R A) The exhaust tubing must run outside the house, NOT INTO THE ATTIC. B) DO NOT exceed 30 ft. of exhaust tubing, in order to avoid motor failure resulting from excessive back pressure. C) DO NOT turn the exhaust piping, run within 18" of the power unit. NOTE: After a proper location has been chosen for the power unit refer to Figure 2 for securing the unit mounting bracket to the wall studs.

Air Duct System Installation 4.0 WALL INLET VALVES Tee -Y Locate the first inlet valve at a point the farthest distance (see Figure 6) from the Power Unit. From this location, select additional valve locations that can be reached in all room corners with a 30' hose. Remember walls and furniture can shorten the distance serviced by a valve in some areas, so be sure to locate inlets with furniture and walls in mind. 5.0 VACUUM DUCT SYSTEM (Fig.

CAUTION: All wiring installation must conform to local electrical codes. Wiring in the ground (soil) must be in conduit. All wiring installation must have a good, solid mechanical connection. Protect all connections and/or splices against short circuits using wire nuts or electrical tape. 7.0 TRIM OUT (INLET VALVES) Do Not Cement inlet valves to the wall valve bracket. Valves require replacement on occasion and if cemented to the duct system, they cannot be removed or replaced. 8.

9.0 ALTERNATE INSTALLATION An effective technique highly suitable for many types of construction with adequate working room inside the roof is to make drops to the wall inlet valves through the ceiling, passing the tube "through the wall" for the inlet valve on the opposite side. If this method is used, the drop from the inside of the roof is made in the corners of closets, utility rooms, etc. where tubing is not visible or objectionable.
