Grounding; Extension Cords - Grizzly G0561 Owner's Manual

Grounding

In the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock. The grounding
wire in the power cord must be properly connect-
ed to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise,
the outlet must be properly installed and ground-
ed. All electrical connections must be made in
accordance 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
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. 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
extension cord at 110V with your machine:
• Use at least a 12 gauge cord for 110V or 16
gauge cord for 220V 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.
