Circuit Recommendations
We recommend using a dedicated circuit for this
machine. You MUST connect your machine to
a grounded circuit that is at least rated for the
amperage given below. Never replace a circuit
breaker on an existing circuit with one of higher
amperage without consulting a qualified electri-
cian to ensure compliance with wiring codes.
If
you are unsure about the wiring codes in your
area or you plan to connect your machine to a
shared circuit, consult a qualified electrician.

This machine must have a ground prong in
the plug to help ensure that it is grounded.
DO NOT remove ground prong from plug
to fit into a two-pronged outlet! If the plug
will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
Extension Cords
We do not recommend the use of extension
cords, but if you find it absolutely necessary:
• Use at least a 16 gauge cord that does not
exceed 50 feet in length!
• The extension cord must also contain a
ground wire and plug pin.
• A qualified electrician MUST size cords over
50 feet long to prevent motor damage.
Electrocution or fire could
result if this machine is
not grounded correctly or
if your electrical configu-
ration does not comply
with local and state codes.
Ensure compliance by
checking with a qualified
electrician!
