INSPECTION
Carefully unpack and inspect your machine for shipping damage. Each unit is tested and thoroughly
inspected before shipment, and any damage is the responsibility of the delivery carrier who should
be notified immediately.
ELECTRICAL - 115 Volt
This machine is designed to operate on a standard 15 amp., 115 volt, 60 hz, AC circuit. Voltages
below 105 volts AC or above 125 volts AC could cause serious damage to the motor.
ELECTRICAL - 230 Volt
This machine is designed to operate on a standard 10 amp., 230 volt, 50 hz, AC circuit.
WARNING
Electric motors can cause explosions when operated near explosive materials or vapors. Do not
operate this machine near flammable materials such as solvents, thinners, fuels, grain dust, etc.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of
electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance — if it will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This machine is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in Sketch A. Make sure that the machine is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this appliance.
For equipment rated 150-250 volts: If the machine is provided with an attachment plug as shown in
Sketch B, it is intended for use on a 240 volt (nominal) circuit. No adapter is available for this plug.

INSTRUCTIONS POUR PRISSE DE TERRE
Cet appariel doit posséder une prise de terre, S’il y avait malfonction ou brisure, une prise de terre
offre une voie de moindre résistance de facon à ce que le courant électrique réduise le risque de
choc. Cet appareil est équippé d’une prise de terre de même qu’une prise de courant avec prise de
terre. Cette prise doit être déposée dans une sortie adéquate qui sera installée selon les exigeances
et les lois locales.
DANGER -Un mauvais assemblage du conducteur de prise de terre pourrait causer un risque
de choc électrique. Vérifier auprès d’un électricien certifié ou d’une personne qualifiée si vous avez
des doutes à savoir si la prise est bien complétée. Ne pas modifier la prise qui vient avec cet
appariel. Si la prise n’accéde pas à la sortie, un électricien qualifié devrait la remplacer.
