CAUTION!
This machine is an electrical appliance. Care must be
taken to reduce the risk of electrical shock.
•
READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING THE M500H.
•
To reduce the risk of property damage or injury, repairs to electrical systems should only be performed by
experienced technicians. Contact your distributor for assistance. Unplug machine power cord from outlet
before performing any repairs on the extractor.
•
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 to fit the
proper grounding type receptacle. The green (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the grounding
wire. Never connect this wire to other than the grounding pin of the attachment plug.
•
This machine is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and
has a grounding plug that resembles the plug illustrated in
the sketch to the right. Make sure that the machine is
connected to an outlet having the same configuration as
the plug. No plug adapter should be used with this
machine.
•
The power cord supplied with this machine is properly
sized to handle the electrical load of this machine and
properly grounded as described above. Any extension
cords used with this machine must be similarly sized and
grounded to assure safe operation. A properly sized
GFCI protected cord can be used for additional protection.
•
Do not use the M500H outdoors, in standing water or on wet surfaces. Do not store the M500H in wet
conditions. If extractor is leaking, unplug machine power cords from outlets before approaching or touching
machine.
•
Do not unplug power cord by pulling on the cord. Grasp the plug end when unplugging the cord. Do not pull
the extractor by the cord. If cord or plug is damaged, do not use cord. Replace with new cord or repair as
needed before use.
•
Overloaded circuit may not always trip circuit breaker. Reduced voltage to machine on overloaded circuit will
prevent components from operating properly.
