GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
breakdown, 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 ordi-
nances.
WARNING: 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 product - 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 ground plug that looks like the plug illustrated in figure
1. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet
having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter
should be used with this appliance.
WARNING: To prevent possible electric shock, protect
the machine from rain. Keep the machine in a dry
building.
WARNING: To prevent possible electric shock, always
use a 3-wire electrical system connected to the elec-
trical ground. For maximum protection against elec-
trical shock, use a circuit that is protected by a ground
fault circuit interrupter. Consult your electrical con-
tractor.
WARNING: Do not cut, remove or break the ground
pin. If the outlet does not fit the plug, consult your
electrical contractor.
WARNING: Have worn, cut or damaged
cords replaced by an authorized service person.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only an approved extension cord with three conductors,
a plug with three terminals, and a connector body with three
holes. The machine has a power cord with wire size 16
AWG (AWG means American Wire Gauge).
WARNING: If you use an extension cord, use an
extension cord with minimum wire size 14 AWG.
Do not use an extension cord longer than 50 feet.
Do not join two extension cords.
APPLIANCE PLUG SOCKET
Before connecting any appliance to the appliance plug
socket, the machine must always be switched off. If appli-
ances are connected to the appliance plug socket, ensure
that these appliances are also switched off when being
connected to the appliance plug socket.
CAUTION: The operating instructions and the safety
precautions contained therein must be observed
when using appliances connected to the appliance
plug socket of the machine.
