This machine must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric current to reduce risk of electric shock. This machine is
equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and 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.
Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric 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 appliance - if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
THE USE OF A TEMPORARY ADAPTER IS NOT PERMITTED BY THE CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE.
This machine is for use on a nominal 120 volt AC circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks
like the plug illustrated in (Fig. 1A). A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated
in (Fig. 1B) may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in (Fig. 1B) if a
properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (Fig. 1A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored
rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground
such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in
place by a metal screw.
