objects being blown into the eyes,
which can result in severe eye dam-
age. Always wear safety eyewear
complying with ANSI Z87.1 (or in
Canada, CSA Z94.3) before starting

(Ground Fault Circuit Interrupt) plug with

used on a properly-grounded outlet.
If the plug does not fit into the outlet,
contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not modify the plug in
any way.

After you plug the power cord into the
outlet, you should always test the GFCI.
Press the red "RESET" button to reset
your Pump Accessory. This has to be
done each time the pump accessory is
plugged into an outlet. If the red "RESET"
indicator does NOT pop up, your unit is
not functioning properly and you should
contact an Independent Service Center to
have your Pump Accessory serviced.
Once you have plugged the power cord
into the outlet and the tested GFCI, you
are ready to run your pump.
NOTE: The Pump Accessory should not
be operated on the same circuit as the
Wet/Dry Vac.
