Installing a cord cap (mains plug)
If you install a cord cap (mains plug) on the power cable to allow connection to power outlets, install a
grounding-type (earthed) plug, following the plug manufacturer’s instructions. Table 1 shows some possible
mains power pin and wire color identification schemes; if pins are not clearly identified, or if you have any
doubts about proper installation, consult a qualified electrician.
Applying power
To apply power, first check that the tilt lock is released and that a power input cable is connected, then set
the power switch on the base (see Figure 2) to the “I” position.
