Installation & Assembly
Improper installation of the grounding plug will result in a risk of electric shock. If repair or replace-
ment of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal.
The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the
grounding wire. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a circuit having a nominal rating of 120 volts and is factory-equipped with
a specific electric cord and plug to permit connection to a proper electric circuit. Make sure that the
product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be
used with this product. If the product must be reconnected for use on a different type of electric circuit,
qualified service personnel should make the reconnection.
Extension Cords
Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will
accept the plug on the product. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. Cords
must not exceed 25 feet and No. 12 AWG size must be used. An undersized cord will cause a drop in
line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
Break In Procedures
No break in procedure is required by the user. This product is factory tested to ensure proper opera-
tion and performance.
