Grounding

 

Extension Cords

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the event of an electrical short, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock. The grounding wire in the power cord must be properly connected to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the outlet must be properly installed and grounded. All electrical connections must be made in accor- dance with local codes and ordinances.

Electrocution or fire could result if this machine is not grounded correctly or if your electrical configu- ration does not comply with local and state codes. Ensure compliance by checking with a qualified electrician!

This machine must have a ground prong in the plug to help ensure that it is grounded. DO NOT remove ground prong from plug to fit into a two-pronged outlet! If the plug will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

We do not recommend the use of extension cords. Instead, arrange the placement of your equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate the need for extension cords.

If you find it absolutely necessary to use an exten- sion cord with your machine:

•The extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin.

•A qualified electrician MUST size cords over 50 feet long to prevent motor damage.

•If the machine operates on 110V, use a 12 gauge cord.

•If the machine operates on 220V, use a 14 gauge cord.
