supplied receptacle. We recommend this equipment be on a dedicated and protected circuit.
Failure to wire properly will void the warranty and may result in damage to the machine. It is Gold
Medal Products Co.’s recommendation that this machine be plugged directly into a wall outlet. The
use of 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
. 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.
4. DO NOT use a grounded to un-grounded receptacle adapter (where applicable).
5. Install unit in a level position.
CAUTION
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by Gold Medal Products Co.,
its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
