GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
If your cord has a grounding pin, the following instructions must be followed:
This appliance should be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electrical current. This appliance 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 use 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 flat blade
terminal. The wire with insulation
having an outer surface that is
green with or without yellow stripes
is the grounding wire. Check with a
qualified electrician or serviceman
if the grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if in
doubt as to whether the appliance
is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided; if it will not fit into
the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a
nominal 120 volt circuit, and has a
grounding plug that looks like the
plug in Figure 1. A temporary adapter
may be used to connect this plug
to a two hole receptacle as shown
in Figure 2 if a properly grounded
outlet is not available. The temporary
adapter should be used only until
a properly grounded outlet (Figure
1) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug,
or the like 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. DO NOT, UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES CUT OR REMOVE THE ROUND GROUNDING PIN
FROM THIS PLUG. If it is necessary to use 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 clipper. Replace or repair a damaged
cord.
