GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
This piece of equipment must be grounded. Should an
electrical malfunction occur, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electrical current- reducing the risk
of electric shock. This piece of equipment is furnished
with a cord that has a grounding conductor and ground-
ing plug. The grounded plug must only be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances.
WARNING:
Connecting the equipment to an improperly grounded
outlet can result in an increased risk of electric shock. A
qualified electrician should be consulted if you are unsure
that the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the equipment. If it will not fit the
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electri-
cian.
This appliance is designed for use on a 120-volt circuit.
The grounding plug provided looks like the plug illustrat-
ed in Figure 1. Replace the power cord if the grounding
pin is damaged or broken.
Extension cords connected to this machine should be
12 gauge, three-wire cords with three-prong plugs and
outlets. DO NOT use extension cords more than 25 feet
(7.6 m) long
.
