Important Safety Information
Grounding Instructions
This machine must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electrical shock. This machine is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed in accordance with all local code
and ordinances. Do not remove ground pin; if missing,
replace plug before use.
Improper installation of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Be sure to
check with a qualied electrician or service person if you
are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.
If the plug will not t in the outlet do not modify the plug or
the machine’s cord, instead have a proper outlet installed
by a qualied technician.
This machine is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and
with a grounding plug similar to the one in Figure 1 below.
If a proper outlet is not available, follow the illustrations of
Figure 2 & 3 to install a temporary-grounding plug. This
temporary work-around should be used only until a proper
outlet (Figure 1) can be installed by a qualied electrician.
When and if this type of adapter is employed, screw the
adapter’s extended tab into place with a metal screw.
However, grounding adapters are not approved for use in
Canada.
Again, be sure to check the grounding pin for damages
and replace if necessary.
The Green, or Green-Yellow, wire in the cord is the
grounding wire. When replacing a plug, this wire must be
attached to only the grounding pin.
DO NOT use extension cords.
