Powering the Machine

Connecting to a Power Source
DANGER
Contact with water while operating the product
could cause electric shock, causing injury or death.
• Do not handle the plug or the machine with wet
hands or while standing in water.
• Use only an extension cord recommended for
outdoor cold-weather use.
Important: Check the extension cord frequently during
use for holes or cracks in the insulation. Do not use a
damaged cord. Do not run the cord through standing
water or wet grass.
Important: Use only extension cords with terminals
and sockets for the live, neutral, and ground wires.
Important: Connect the machine to only a receptacle
with live, neutral, and ground connections.
Important: The connecting wires or extension cord
should be as short as possible and in 1 piece.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this machine has a
polarized plug (unique blade shapes and widths). Use only
a polarized plug and socket that is compliant with NEMA
specifications and an extension cord that is UL-listed (CSA
certified in Canada) and recommended for outdoor use. A
polarized plug will fit in a polarized cord only 1 way. If the
plug does not fit fully into the cord, turn the cord. If it
still does not fit, purchase an appropriate extension cord.
If you have a polarized extension cord and the extension
cord plug does not fit fully into the wall receptacle, turn the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install the proper outlet. Do not change the machine plug or
extension-cord plug in any way.
Note: The machine uses a twist-locking plug.
