Electrical - Ryobi GD200 Operator's Manual

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This product has a precision-built electric motor. It should
be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, AC only
(normal household current), 60 Hz. Except with battery
pack installed, a substantial voltage drop will cause a loss
of power and the motor will overheat. If your product does
not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the
power supply.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
See Figure 1.
This product must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction
or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This product is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet,
have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the grounding plug can result in a
risk of electric shock. When repair or replacement of the
cord is required, do not connect the grounding wire to
either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having
an outer surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the grounding wire.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 V circuit and has a
grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated in figure 1. Only
connect the product to an outlet having the same configuration
as the plug. Do not use an adapter with this product.
GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER
See Figure 2.
The 10 amp, 120 volt receptacles on the garage door opener
are protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI),
which guards against the hazards of ground fault currents.
An example of ground fault current is the current that would
flow through a person who is using an appliance with faulty
insulation and, at the same time, is in contact with an electrical
ground such as a plumbing fixture, wet floor, or earth.

ELECTRICAL

GFCI receptacles do not protect against short circuits,
overloads, or shocks.
The GFCI receptacles can be tested with the TEST and
RESET buttons.
To test:
 Open the console door.
 Depress the TEST button. This should cause the RESET
button to pop out.
 To restore power, depress the RESET button.
Perform this test monthly to ensure proper operation of the
GFCI.
