CHARGER GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

THE GOFREE BATTERY CHARGER MUST BE GROUNDED. If the charger should malfunction

or stop working, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electrical current, thereby

reducing the risk of electrical shock. This unit is equipped with a cord that has an equip-

ment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted in an appropri-

ate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and

ordinances. Cutting off the ground wire or using a cord that is not equipped with a ground

plug will void the warranty on the unit, and ProTeam will accept NO liability associated with
the unit.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding con-

ductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a

qualified electrician or service person if you are unsure that

the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug

provided with the charger. If it will not fit the outlet, have

a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

The GoFree battery charger is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounded

plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in Figure AA. A temporary adaptor that

looks like the adaptor illustrated in sketches B and C may be used to connect this plug to

a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The

temporary adaptor should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be

installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending

from the adaptor must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded

outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.
Note: In Canada, the use of a temporary adaptor is not permitted by the Canadian Electrical

Code.
For Canada – This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a grounded

attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in Figure AA. Make sure that

the charger is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adap-

tor should be used with the chargers detailed in this manual.
