READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS MACHINE

WARNING

: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury:

1. You must be trained to operate this machine. This machine is to be operated for its intended use only.

2. Do not operate this machine unless it is completely assembled.

3. Always use a three-wire electrical system connected to the electrical ground. For maximum protection against electrical

shock, use a circuit that is protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter. Consult your electrical contractor.

4. To prevent electric shock, always remove the electrical plug from the electrical outlet before doing any repairs or mainte-

nance and when leaving the machine unattended.

5. To prevent electric shock, keep the machine surface dry. Do not subject to rain. Store the machine in a dry building area.

Clean the machine with a dry cloth only.

6. Machines can cause an explosion when near flammable materials and vapors. Do not use this machine with or near fuels,

grain dust, solvents, thinners, or other flammable materials. Do not use flammables to clean this machine.

7. A qualified or authorized person must do maintenance and repairs.

8. To prevent damage to the power cord, do not move this machine over the power cord. Always lift the power cord over the

machine. Do not pull or carry cord, use cord as a handle, close a door on cord, or pull cord around sharp edges or corners.

Keep cord away from heated surfaces.

9. Do not use with damaged cord or plug. If the machine is not working as it should, has been dropped, damaged, left

outdoors, or dropped into water, return it to a service center.

Grounding Instructions

This machine must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down,

grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the

risk of electric shock. This machine is equipped with a cord having an equip-

ment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted

into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accor-

dance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor

can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or

service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.

Do not modify the plug provided with the machine - if it will not fit the outlet,

have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

This machine is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounded

plug that looks like the plug illustrated in figure A. A temporary adapter that

looks like the adapter illustrated in figures B and C may be used to connect

this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in figure B if a properly grounded

outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a

properly grounded outlet (figure A) can be installed by a qualified electri-

cian. 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.

NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the

Canadian Electrical Code

EXTENSION CORDS

Use only three-wire 12/3 or larger gauge approved extension cords that have

three-prong grounding type plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the

appliance's plug. Replace or repair any damaged cords or plugs.

When servicing, refer to authorized person only. Use only identical replace-

ment parts.
