120VAC GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded. If it should electrically malfunction, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce

the risk of electric shock. This appliance 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 and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DANGER!

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric 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 appliance. If it will not ﬁt the outlet, have a 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 illustrated in Figure 1 below. A temporary

adapter illustrated in Figures 2 and 3 may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole 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, tab, 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.

Grounding adapters are not approved for use in Canada.

Replace the plug if the grounding pin is damaged or broken.

The Green (or Green/Yellow) wire in the cord is the grounding wire. When replacing a plug, this wire must be attached to the grounding pin only.

Extension cords connected to this machine should be 2.5mm2(12 AWG), three-wire cords with three-prong plugs and outlets. DO NOT use

extension cords more than 15 M (50 ft) long.

WARNING!

• If an extension cord is used, the plug and socket must be of watertight construction.

• Inadequate extension cords can be dangerous.
