ThePondguy ClearVac Installation & Maintenance Manual - Package Contents
Please read these instructions thoroughly before use. Failure to follow instructions may
result in equipment damage or failure, losses, injury or death.
DANGER:
To avoid possible electric shock:
• If the power cord has been damaged, DO NOT operate, the ClearVac™ Vacuum should be replaced.
• Prior to installation, inspect the ClearVac™ Vacuum to ensure there was no damage during transportation.
• If the ClearVac™ Vacuum falls into the water, DO NOT reach for it. First unplug and then retrieve it.
• Close supervision is necessary when used near children.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of electric shock:
• Connect only to a properly grounded receptacle, which is serviced by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
and never remove the ground pin from the plug.
• Provide a “drip loop” for the power cord. This is a loop in the cord below the level of the receptacle or plug
that prevents water from traveling along the cord in the direction of the receptacle.
• ALWAYS unplug the ClearVac™ Vacuum from the power source when it is not in use, and before installing,
removing or servicing the ClearVac™ Vacuum components.
• If an extension cord is necessary, use only a 10 or 12 gauge outdoor rated extension cord no longer than 50
feet. A cord may overheat if the cord is rated for less amperes or watts than the unit rating.
• DO NOT immerse the ClearVac™ Vacuum or plug in water or attempt to use a wet plug.
• The ClearVac™ Vacuum is NOT suitable for use in swimming pools, swimming ponds, or other situations
where bodily contact is made with the water. Although the ClearVac™ Vacuum is designed for outdoor use,
it should never be submerged in water.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of equipment damage or failure:
• DO NOT place ClearVac™ Vacuum near flammable or other dangerous materials or objects.
• ClearVac™ Vacuum is NOT submersible; do not place ClearVac™ Vacuum where it might contact or fall into
the water.
• DO NOT operate during freezing conditions. Drain the ClearVac™ Vacuum and store in a protected location.
• DO NOT use the ClearVac™ Vacuum to vacuum flammable, toxic or volatile substances.
• Be sure to clean debris from the vacuum after each use, and before storing the unit, to avoid poor
performance during future use.
