Grounding Instructions
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This
appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug 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 an equipment-grounding conductor
can result in risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided
with the appliance. If it will not fit the outlet, have proper outlet
installed by a qualified technician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has
a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Figure
1. A temporary adapter which looks like the adapter illustrated
in Figure 2 may be used to connect this plug to a two-pole
receptacle, as shown, if a properly grounded outlet is not
available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet, Figure 1, can be installed by a
qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the
like extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box
cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place
by a metal screw.
For floor finishing machines rated 150-250 volts:
If the machine is provided with an attachment plug cap as
shown in Fig. 3, it is intended for use on a 240 volt (nominal)
circuit. No adapter is available for this application.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not
permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code.
