2. Grounding instructions
This product 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 product 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 equipment-grounding conductor. Do not connect the
equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal if the cord needs to be repaired or replaced.
Check with a qualified electrician if grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with
the product, if it will not fit the outlet; have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
120V machine models
This product is for use on a nominal 120 V circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in sketch A in Fig 1. 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 a metal screw.
200V and higher machine models
This product is for use on a circuit having a nominal rating more than 120V and is
factory-equipped with a specific electric cord and plug. No adapter should be used with this
product. If the product must be reconnected for use on a different type of electric circuit, the
reconnection should be made by qualified service personnel; and after the reconnection, the
product should comply with all local codes and ordinances.
NOTE: If there is doubt as to whether an outlet box is properly grounded, consult a qualified
electrician.
