understood, do not operate until grounding
has been explained . We strongly recommend
that you consult with a qualified electrician to
ensure compliance with local electrical codes if
grounding of the product is not fully understood .
Improper connection of the equipment or the

If the cord, plug, or outlet look damaged do
not plug into a live terminal . Replace or fix any
damaged cords, prongs, or outlets before use .
Do not use any adapter or extension to connect
the plug to a power source or outlet that is not
grounded .
Failure to properly ground the electric hoist
can result in electric shock .
