2.23 Grounding Instructions
This product should be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord
having a grounding wire with a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING
Improper installation of the grounding plug
can result in a risk of electrical shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire to either
fl at blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the grounding wire.

understood, or if in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided; if it will not fi t the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualifi ed electrician.
