1. All grounded, cord-connected machines:

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce

the risk of electric shock. This machine is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and

a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance

with all local codes and ordinances.

Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock.The conductor with

insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If

repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live

terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in

doubt as to whether the machine is properly grounded.

Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding type plugs and matching 3-conductor receptacles that

accept the machine’s plug, as shown in Fig. A.

Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

Grounded, cord-connected machines intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating less than 150 volts:

If the machine is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. A, the machine

will have a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig. A. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter

illustrated in Fig. B, may be used to connect this plug to a matching 2-conductor receptacle as shown in Fig. B if a

properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can

be installed by a qualified electrician. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adapter must be

connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held

in place with a metal screw.

NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian Electric Code.

In all cases, make certain that the receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a

qualified electrician check the receptacle.

EXTENSION CORDS

Use proper extension cords. Make sure

your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire

extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type

plug and matching receptacle which will accept the

machine’s plug. When using an extension cord, be sure

to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the

machine. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line

voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig.

D-1 shows the correct gauge to use depending on the

cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The

smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
