HOW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD
This product is for use on a nominal 12g-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-
trated in drawing 1 below. Atemporary adapter that
looks like the adapter illustrated in drawing 2 may be
used to connect the surge suppressor to a 2-pole
receptacle as shown in drawing 2 if a properly
grounded outlet is not available.
Your vibration platform, like any other type of sophisti-
cated electronic equipment, can be seriously damaged
by sudden voltage changes in your home's power.
Voltage surges, spikes, and noise interference can
result from weather conditions or from other appliances
being turned on or off. To decrease the possibility of
your vibration platform being damaged, always
use a surge suppressor with your vibration plat-
form (see drawing t at the right). To purchase a
surge suppressor, see your local Sears store or
call the telephone number on the back cover of
this manual and order part number 146148, or see
your local electronics store.
Use only a single-outlet surge suppressor that is
UL t449 listed as a transient voltage surge sup-
pressor (TVSS). The surge suppressor must have
a UL suppressed voltage rating of 400 volts or less
and a minimum surge dissipation of 450 joules.
The surge suppressor must be electrically rated
for t20 volts AC and t5 amps. There must be a
monitoring light on the surge suppressor to indi-
cate whether it is functioning properly.
This product must be grounded. If it should mal-
function or break down, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk
of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. Plug the power cord into a surge
suppressor, and plug the surge suppressor into an
appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances. IMPORTANT: The vibration platform is
not compatible with GFCl-equipped outlets.

The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (drawing 1) can be installed
by a qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used it must be held in place
by a metal screw. Some 2-pole receptacle outlet
box covers are not grounded. Contact a qualified
electrician to determine if the outlet box cover is
grounded before using an adapter.
