120 VOLT & 240V MACHINES
Instructions for connection to the power
supply and the electrical ground.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction
or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of
electrical shock. This product is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and ground-
ing plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate
oulet that is properly installed and grounded in accor-
dance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING: Improper connection of the equip-
ment-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 product - if it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt or 240V
circuit and has a grounding attachment plug that looks
like the plug illustrated in Fig. 4. Make sure that the
product is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adaptor should be used
with this product.
WARNING: To prevent possible electric shock,
protect the machine from rain. Keep the machine
in a dry building.
WARNING: To prevent possible electric shock,
always use a 3-wire electrical system connected
to the electrical ground. For maximum protection
against electrical shock, use a circuit that is
protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter.
Consult your electrical contractor.
WARNING: Do not cut, remove or break the
ground pin. If the outlet does not fit the plug,
consult your electrical contractor.
WARNING: Have worn, cut or damaged
cords replaced by an authorized service person.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only an approved extension cord with three
conductors, a plug with three terminals, and a
connector body with three holes. The machine has a
power cord with wire size 14 AWG (AWG means
American Wire Gauge).
WARNING: If you use an extension cord,
use an extension cord with minimum wire size
12 AWG. Do not use an extension cord longer
than 50 feet. Do not join two extension cords.
