GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded while in use to
protect the operator from electrical shock. The
appliance is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and
3-prong grounding-type plug to fit the proper
grounding-type receptacle. The appliance has a plug
that looks like the plug in drawing (1). An adapter, as in
drawing (), should be used for connecting the appliance
plug to two-prong receptacles. The grounding tab which
extends from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet
box as shown in drawing (3) using a metal screw.
NOTE: The use of an adapter is not authorized in Canada.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong
grounding-type plugs and 3-pole cord connectors that
accept the plug from the appliance. Use only extension
cords that are intended for indoor use. Use only extension
cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating
of the appliance. Do not use damaged extension cords.
Examine extension cord before using and replace if
damaged. Do not abuse extension cord and do not yank
on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away from heat
and sharp edges.
