IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
EXTENSION CORDS
Your Earlex Spray Port is supplied with a power cord that is 6 feet long. If you need an extension cord, use
only a 3 wire extension cord that has a 3 blade grounding plug, and a 3 slot receptacle that will accept the plug
on the product. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure
to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. For lengths less than 25 feet, No 16AWG
extension cords should be used. For lengths between 25 feet and 50 feet, No 12 AWG extension cords should
be used.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric
shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER :- Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
If repair or
replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire to either of the flat blade
terminals. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with, or
without, yellow stripes is the grounding wire and this must be connected to the
plug's grounding pin.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the product is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided if it will not fit the outlet, have the
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a grounding plug
that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig.1. Make sure that the product is
connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter
should be used with this product.
