GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The hydraulic
pump is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment grounding conduc-
tor and a grounding plug. Only connect the pump to a 20 AMP GFCI protected
receptacle which is properly installed and grounded to meet all applicable elec-
trical codes. Do NOT use an adapter.
Do NOT modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the receptacle, have the
proper receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result in 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. If
repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect
the equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether
the hydraulic pump is properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and
3-pole receptacles that accept the pump’s plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.
This pump is intended for use on a circuit that has a receptacle that looks
like the one illustrated in Figure 9a above. The pump has a grounding plug
that looks like the plug illustrated in Figure 9b above.
