SAFETY GUIDELINES
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
Use only 3-wire extension cords that
have 3-pronged 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.

Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition
and is a 3-wire extension cord which has a 3-pronged 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
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.
