POWER AND GROUNDING

Pay attention to the following.
Power Supply
1. Power requirements: 115 V, 60 Hz
2. Insert the power plug securely into the wall
socket.
3. Make sure that the wall outlet is near the
machine and readily accessible.
4. Do not connect other equipment to the
same socket.
5. Do not step on or set anything on the
power cord.
6. Do not connect other equipment to the
same extension cord.
7. Be sure that the power cord is not in a
position where it would trip someone.
8. The wall outlet must be easily accessible.
Grounding
Ground the machine and the lightning protection circuit in accordance with
regulations. Do not ground to gas or water pipes, or to a telephone ground plug.
Proper grounding is to the ground terminal of the power outlet. Be sure that the
ground terminal of the power outlet is properly grounded.
The lightning protection circuit for the machine requires the machine to be
properly grounded. If proper grounding is provided, about 90% of lightning
damage can be prevented. For safety, be sure to connect the machine to a
three-prong grounded outlet.
