DANGER
Disconnect the power cord before starting maintenance operation!
Always keep the machine clean. Can use an air compressor, a vacuum or a soft brush to remove the dust on the machine. Can use a slightly damp cloth to clean the casing. Before store or after each use of the machine, pump pure water through the system for at least 1-2 minutes,
this will help clean the snow fluid residue and extend the lifespan on the pump and the machine. Before store or after each use, please make sure the fluid tank is clean and dry. It is recommended to run the machine at least once a month in order to maintain its best performance and
output condition. Excessive dust and build up liquid residue will reduce the performance and cause overheat.

Appendix I Grounding Instruction
This appliance must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a 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. DANGER Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipmentgrounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipmentgrounding conductor to a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This appliance is for use on a nominal 120V circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in Figure. A temporary adaptor, which looks like the adaptor illustrated in sketches B and C, may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adaptor should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adaptor must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be held in place by the metal screw.
