IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
GROUNDING OF ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
WARNING
:
Improper connection of the equipment–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
machine. If outlet is not suitable for safe use; have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
Always use a properly grounded 3-wire extension cord, which has
male and female plugs. If 25 foot extension cords are used, the
electrical carrying capacity should be no less than 14-3 ST., 50-foot
extension cords no less than 12-3 ST.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This machine shall be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock. The machine
is provided with a three-conductor cord and a three-contact grounding type attachment plug. The plug
must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances. The green conductor in the cord is the ground wire. Never connect this
wire to other than the grounding pin of the attachment plug.
Check nameplate on the machine to be sure voltage and cycle stated is the same as the electrical
outlet. Do not attempt to plug a 120-volt machine into a 240-volt outlet or a 240-volt machine into a
120-volt outlet. If the machine is provided with an attachment plug as shown in Figure A. below, it is
intended for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit. If a properly grounded receptacle as shown in Figure A.
is not available, an adapter may be installed as shown in Figure B. if the outlet box that houses the
receptacle is grounded. Be sure to fasten the grounding tab (the green colored rigid ear, lug or the like
extending from the adapter) with a metal faceplate screw.
If the machine is provided with an attachment plug as shown in Figure C., it is intended for use on a
nominal 240-volt circuit. Changes to the attachment plug or use of adaptors to other plug types must
be done in accordance with local regulations.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adaptor may not be permitted by Canadian electrical code.
ALL REPAIR SERVICE MUST BE PERFORMED BY AN NSS AUTHORIZED DISTRIBUTOR /
SERVICE STATION USING ONLY NSS ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT PARTS.
