Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for the 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.
DANGER
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman
if you are in doubt as to whether the product is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided
with the product - if it will not fit the outlet, you
may temporarily use an adaptor (such as the
one shown in Figure B) until you have a proper
outlet (such as the one shown in Figure C)
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
Figure A
. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter
illustrated in
Figure B
may be used to connect this plug to
a 2-pole receptacle as shown in
Figure D
if a properly
grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter
should be used only until a properly grounded outlet
Figure
C
can be installed by a qualified electrician. The tab for
grounding screw
Figure B
extending from the adapter
must be connected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter
is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.
