WARNING:
Keep clear of moving parts. Make sure moving parts will not catch on
anything before beginning the job. This unit is to be used only by trained operators.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding 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 (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the
grounding wire. Never connect the green (or green and yellow) wire to a live
terminal. This product has a plug that looks like that shown here.
DANGER:
Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electrocution. Check
with a qualified electrician or service
personnel if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded.
DO NOT USE ANY TYPE OF ADAPTOR
WITH THIS PRODUCT.
The RAM-4, RAM-4X and RAM-PTC are provided with a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) built into the power supply cord. This device provides
additional protection from the risk of electric shock. Should replacement of
the plug or cord become necessary, use only identical replacement parts that
include GFCI protection.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding-type plugs and
3-pole cord connectors that accept the plug from the product. Use only extension
cords that are intended for outdoor use. Use only extension cords having an
electrical rating not less then the rating of the product. Do not use damaged
extension cords. Examine extension cord before using and replace if damaged.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current the product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table below shows the correct size
to use depending on cord length and nameplate amperage rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
