Temporary Method
(Adaptor plugs not permitted
in Canada)
Align large
prongs/slots
Insure proper ground
and firm connection
before use
For 15 amp circuit only. Do not use an adaptor
on a 20 amp circuit. Where local codes permit, a
TEMPORARY CONNECTION may be made to
a properly grounded two-prong wall receptacle
by the use of a UL listed adaptor available at
most hardware stores. The larger slot in the
adaptor must be aligned with the large slot in the
wall receptacle to provide proper polarity in the
connection of the power cord.

Installation Instructions
CAUTION: Attaching the adaptor
ground terminal to the wall receptacle
cover screw does not ground the
appliance unless the screw is metal,
and not insulated, and the wall recep-
tacle is grounded through the
housewiring. The customer should
have the circuit checked by a quali-
fied electrician to make sure the
receptacle is properly grounded.
When disconnecting the power cord from the
adaptor, always hold the adaptor with one
hand. If this in not done the adaptor ground
terminals is very likely to break with repeated
use. Should this happen, DO NOT USE the
appliance until a proper ground has again
been established.
Usage situations where appliance power
cord will be disconnected frequently.
Do not use an adaptor plug in these situations
because disconnection of the power cord
places undue strain on the adaptor and leads
to eventual failure of the adaptor ground
terminal. The customer should have the two-
prong receptacle replaced with a three-prong
(grounding) receptacle by a qualified
electrician before using the appliance.
