GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The machine must be grounded if you are using the external power supply or the
battery charger. Grounding provides the path of least resistance for the electric
current, thereby reducing the risk of electric shock. The power supply or battery
charger must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DANGER
IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT-GROUNDING CONNECTOR CAN
RESULT IN THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELECTRI-
CIAN OR SERVICE PERSON IF YOU ARE IN DOUBT AS TO WHETHER THE MA-
CHINE IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED WITH
THIS MACHINE. IF IT WILL NOT FIT THE AVAILABLE OUTLET, HAVE A PROPER
OUTLET INSTALLED BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
The grounding plug on the power supply and the battery charger is
shown in sketch A below*. A temporary adapter, shown in sketches B and C, may
be used to connect the plug to a two-pole receptacle if a properly grounded out-
let is not available. The adapter should be used only until a properly grounded
outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The tab extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as the metal
screw on the outlet cover.
* This may vary for International power supplies.
