120 Volt Machine Instructions For Connection
To The Power Supply And The Electrical Ground
This machine must be connected to the electrical
ground to protect the operator from electric shock.
The machine has an approved power cord with three
conductors and a plug with three terminals. Connect
the plug to a receptacle that has three holes and is
connected to the electrical ground. The green (or
green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the
ground wire. Never connect this wire to any terminal
other than the ground terminal.
This machine uses a 120 volt AC 60 cycle electrical
circuit. Make sure you have the correct frequency
and voltage before connecting the power cord to an
outlet. The machine has a plug as shown in Figure 1.
If a receptacle connected to the electrical ground as
shown in Figure 1 is not available, have one installed
by an electrical contractor. Do not use an adapter.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock,
protect the machine from rain. Keep
the machine in a dry area.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock,
always use a 3-wire electrical system
connected to the electrical ground.
Whenever possible connect the
machine to an outlet protected by a
ground fault interrupter (GFCI).
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 and
plugs replaced by an authorized
service person.
