A certified electrician must furnish sufficient power for proper machine operation and install any
supplied receptacle (reference unit Data Plate for model specific Volts AC, Hertz, and Wattage
requirements). We recommend this equipment be on a dedicated and protected circuit. Failure

extension cords is not recommended due to safety concerns, and may cause sacrificed and/or
reduced performance. Make sure cord is located to prevent a trip hazard or unit upset.
Before You Plug In Machine
1. Make sure all machine switches are OFF before plugging equipment into receptacle.
2. Make sure wall outlet can accept the grounded plugs (where applicable) on the power
supply cord.
3. The wall outlet must have the proper polarity. If in doubt, have a competent
electrician inspect the outlet and correct if necessary.

5. Install unit in a level position.
CAUTION
