ELECTRICAL
We do not recommend using an extension cord
with most equipment because the cord can
generate heat that may cause fire or circuit
damage. If you must use an extension cord, use
the guidelines below.
•Use a cord rated for Standard Service
(Grade S)
•Use a cord that is 100 feet or less only
•Use a cord with a ground pin
•Use an undamaged cord only
Extension Cords
110V Operation
The SHOP FOX ® Model W1690 Deluxe Ceiling
Mounted Air Cleaner uses a 110V, single-phase,
1 ⁄
5
HP motor that draws approximately 3 amps
at the high speed setting.
Make sure the supply circuit, circuit breaker, or
fuse can carry the additional 3 amp load since
other machines may be using the same circuit. If
the total amperage load of all machines and the
air cleaner unit exceeds the amperage rating of
the circuit breaker or fuse, use a different
circuit that can carry the load.
DO NOT modify an existing low-amperage circuit
by only replacing the circuit breaker with a
breaker rated for a higher amperage. The
breaker and the complete circuit must be
replaced by a qualified electrician.
Figure 1. NEVER cut the ground pin off so the
plug can fit into a non-grounded receptacle.
Grounding
Ground this machine! The electrical cord
supplied with the Model W1690 Air Cleaner has a
ground pin. If your power receptacle does not
have a ground pin hole, have the receptacle
replaced by a qualified electrician, or have an
appropriate adapter installed and grounded
properly.
NEVER cut the ground pin off so your air cleaner
unit will plug into a non-grounded receptacle.
See Figure 1. Remember, an adapter with a
grounding wire does not guarantee the air
cleaner unit is grounded. A ground source must
always be verified in the electrical circuit within
the wall or conduit.
Any electrical outlet and
circuit that you plug your
machine into must be
grounded. Serious injury
and/or fire may occur if this
warning is ignored!
NOTICE
When using an electrical plug adapter, make
sure the adapter is grounded.
