GROUNDING
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric
current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an
appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
• Improper installation of the grounding plug is able to result in a risk of electric
shock.
• When repair or replacement of the cord or plug is required, do not connect the
grounding wire to either flat blade terminal.
• The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without
yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
• Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman when the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or when in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded.
• Do not modify the plug provided; if it does not fit the outlet, have the proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
• This product is for use on a nominal 120V or 230V circuit and has a grounding
plug similar to the plugs illustrated in the figure below.
• Only connect the product to an outlet having the same configuration as the
plug.
• Do not use an adapter with this product.
• Extension Cords:
• Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a grounding plug and a grounding
receptacle that accepts the plug on the product.
• Make sure your extension cord is not damaged. If an extension cord is
necessary, use 12 AWG (2.5 mm
2
) minimum to carry the current that the
product draws.
• An undersized cord results in a drop in line voltage and loss of power and
overheating.
