SPECIaL CORd SET 

INSTRUCTIONS 
NOTICE

If you have a die-cast 
metal unit, for your 
protection, it is equipped 
with a 3-conductor cord 
set that has a molded 
3-prong grounding-type 
plug, and should be used 
in combination with a 
properly connected 
grounding-type outlet as 
shown in Figure A.
If a grounding-type outlet is not available, an 
adapter, shown in Figure B, may be obtained so 
that a 2-slot wall outlet can be used with a 
3-prong plug. As shown in Figure C, the adapter 
must be grounded by attaching its grounding 
lug under the screw of the outlet cover plate.

NOTE: do not remove the grounding prong.
CaUTION: Before using an adapter, 

it must be determined that the 

outlet cover plate screw is properly 

grounded. If in doubt, consult a 

licensed electrician. Never use an 

adapter unless you are sure it is 

properly grounded.
Note: Use of an adapter is not 

permitted in Canada.
