CAUTION: Inadequate wiring hazard
Overheating, short-circuiting and fire damage will result
from inadequate wire sizing.

Circuit Breaker

Your electrician will need to refer to the National Electric
Code to determine the proper circuit breaker rating
required. When selecting a circuit breaker, remember
the momentary starting current of an electric motor is
greater than its full load current. Time-delay or "slow-
blow" circuit breakers are recommended.

Grounding

This product and its associated conduit and junction box
must be grounded. Do not ground to a gas supply line.
WARNING: Electrical shock hazard
Improperly grounded motors are shock hazards. Make
sure all equipment is properly grounded. Check with a
qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the
outlet is properly grounded.
