IV. Grounding Instructions
The GB/JetLine ® blowers and Blo-Vac™
systems require a 120V, 60Hz, 15A circuit; with
the exception of the B3000 power unit which
requires a 120V, 60Hz, 30A circuit; and must be
grounded. If the power unit should malfunction
or breakdown, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for the electrical current to
reduce the risk of electrical shock. These power
units are equipped with a cord that has a
grounding conductor and grounding plug. The
plug must be inserted into an outlet that is
properly grounded in accordance with all codes
and ordinances. FIG. 1

Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a
qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not
modify the plug provided with the Blo-Vac™. If it will not fit the outlet, have the correct outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
