Your machine comes equipped with a polarized plug (one prong wider than the other). A polarized plug reduces
the risk of electrical shock. This plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit
fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper
outlet. Do not modify the plug in any way.
Use only foot control YC-482J or TJC-150 (UL, CSA).
