115VElectricalConnectionInstructions

DANGER: Electrocution and/or damage could

occur if this machine is plugged

into anything other than the cor-

rect frequency as specified on the

nameplate. This machine will

operate only on AC frequency and

on electrical voltage shown on the

nameplate. Make sure you have

the correct frequency and voltage

before connecting the power cord

to an outlet. The machine has a

plug as shown in figure 8.

This machine must be connected to an electrically

ground circuit in order to protect the operator from

electric shock. This machine has an approved power

cord with three conductors as well as a plug with three

terminals. Connecttheplugintoathreeholedreceptacle.

For maximum protection against electric shock, use a

circuitthatisprotectedbyagroundfaultcircuitinterrupter.

This machine uses a 115V AC 60 cycle electrical circuit.

Make sure you have the correct frequency and voltage

before connecting the power cord to an outlet. Do not

use an adaptor to plug in this machine. Contact an

electrical contractor and have a 3-prong receptacle

installed.

DANGER: Electrocution could occur if the

machine is exposed to water or

rain. Keep the machine in a dry

building.

DANGER: Electrocution could occur if ma-

chine is improperly connected to

the electrical system. To prevent

possible electric shock, always use

a 3-wire electrical system con-

nected to an electrical ground.

For maximum protection against

electrical shock, use a circuit that

is protected by a ground fault cir-

cuit interrupter. Consult your elec-

trical contractor.

DANGER: Electrocution could occur if the

ground pin is tampered with in any

way. Do not cut, remove, or break

the ground pin. Do not try to fit a

three-terminal plug into a recep-

tacle or connector body other than

a three plug receptacle or connec-

tor body. If the outlet does not fit

the plug, consult your electrical

contractor.

DANGER: Electrocution could occur if the

machine is used with a damaged

plug or power cord. If the cords or

plugs are worn or damaged in any

way, have them replaced by an

authorized service person or elec-

trician.
