Important Safety Information

Grounding Instructions

This machine must be grounded. If it should malfunction
or breakdown, 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 appro-

priate 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 conduc-

tor can result in a risk of electric shock. Be sure to check

with a qualied 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 either the

plug nor the machine’s cord, instead have a proper outlet

installed by a qualied 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 qualied 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.

authorized Service Center using Mytee original replace­ment parts and accessories for repairs are needing to be
