POWER SOURCE CONNECTION
POWER REQUIREMENTS
This product is designed to operate on a properly
grounded 120 volt, 60Hz, single-phase alternating
current (AC) power source fused with a 20 amp time
delayed fuse or circuit breaker. It is recommended that
a qualified electrician verify the ACTUAL VOLTAGE at
the receptacle into which the product will be plugged
and confirm that the receptacle is properly fused and
grounded.
DO NOT OPERATE THIS PRODUCT if the ACTUAL
power source voltage is less than 105 volts AC
or greater than 132 volts AC. Contact a qualified
electrician if this problem exists. Improper performance
and/or damage to the product will result if operated on
inadequate or excessive power.
CONNECT TO POWER SOURCE
Consult a qualified electrician for proper installation
of receptacle at the power source. This product must
be grounded while in use to protect the operator from
electrical shock. If you are not sure if your outlet is
properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified
electrician. Do not cut off the grounding prong or
alter the plug in any way and do not use any adapters
between the product’s power cord and the power source
receptacle. Make sure the POWER switch is OFF then
connect the power cord to a properly grounded 120V,
60Hz, single phase, 20 amp power source.
EXTENSION CORDS
For optimum performance, an extension cord should
not be used unless absolutely necessary. If necessary,
care must be taken in selecting an extension cord
appropriate for use with your specific product. Select a
properly grounded extension cord that will mate directly
with the power source receptacle and the power
cord without the use of adapters. Make certain that
the extension is properly wired and in good electrical
condition. Extension cords must be a minimum # 12
gauge cord. Do not use an extension cord over 25 ft.
(7.6m) in length.
