grounding instructions

Important: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK - Please read carefully.

FOR PERSONAL SAFETY, THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED. The power cord on this appliance is equipped with a three-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a standard three-prong (grounded) receptacle as illustrated above.

If there is a two-prong outlet located where you will install the compactor, it is your responsibility to have it replaced with a properly grounded three-prong wall receptacle. No adapter shall be used with this product.

DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE THIRD (GROUND) PRONG FROM THE POWER CORD PLUG.

The GREEN (or GREEN & YELLOW) conductor in the cord is the grounding wire. Never connect the GREEN (or GREEN & YELLOW) wire to a live terminal.

A 120 volt, 60 Hz., A.C., 15 amp fused and grounded electrical supply is required (time-delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended). It is recommended that a SEPARATE CIRCUIT serving only this appliance be provided.

DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD WITH THIS APPLIANCE.
