Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electrical 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 it will not fit the outlet,
have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
NOTE:
In Canada, the use of a temporary adaptor is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.
1) DO NOT
leave this machine plugged in
when not in use. Unplug from outlet when
not in use and/or before servicing.

This floor machine must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for elec-
trical current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This machine is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounded plug. The
plug must be inserted into an appropriate
outlet that is properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug
is necessary,
DO NOT
connect the ground-
ing wire to either flat blade terminal. The
wire with insulation having an outer surface
that is green with or without yellow stripes
is the grounding wire.
Improper use of the
grounding plug can
result in a risk of
electrical shock.

This floor machine is for use on a nominal
120 volt circuit, and has a grounding plug
that looks like the plug illustrated in (Fig A).
A temporary adaptor that looks like the
adaptor illustrated in (Fig B & C) may be
used to connect the plug to a 2-pole recep-
tacle as shown in (Fig A) if a properly
grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adaptor should be used only
until a properly grounded outlet (Fig A) can
be installed by a qualified electrician. The
green color rigid ear, lug, or like extending
from the adaptor must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly
grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the
adaptor is used, it must be held in place by
the metal screw (Fig C).
