Circuit Requirements

We recommend connecting this machine to a dedicated circuit with a verified ground, using the circuit breaker size given below. Never replace a circuit breaker with one of higher amperage with- out consulting a qualified electrician to ensure compliance with wiring codes. If you are unsure about the wiring codes in your area or you plan to connect your machine to a shared cir- cuit, you may create a fire hazard—consult a qualified electrician to reduce this risk.

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.

Extension Cords

We do not recommend the use of extension cords, if you find it absolutely necessary:

Use at least a 14 gauge cord that does not exceed 50 feet in length!

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.
