Use of Adapter Plug
Because of potential safety
hazards under certain conditions,
we strongly recommend against use
of an adapter plug. However, if you
still elect to use an adapter, where
local codes permit, a temporary
connection may be made to a
properly grounded two-prong wall
outlet by use of a ~-listed adapter
(Fig. 2) available at most local
hardware stores.

The 230/208-volt models require their own single branch
circuit supplying 230/208-volt a.c., protected with a time
delay fuse or circuit breaker. This is recommend for best
performance and to prevent overloading house wiring
circuits, which codd cause a possible tie hazard from
overheating wires.

checked by a qu~fied electrician if there is any doubt as
to whether a proper ground exists.
Should the adapter ground terminal
break, DO NOT USE the apphance
until a proper ground has again
been established.
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we strongly
recommend against the use of an
extension cord. However, if you stall
elect to use an extension cord, it is
absolutely necessary fiat it be a
current carrying rating of the cord in
amperes be equal to or greater than
