THIS PRODUCT IS FOR COMMERCIAL USE

ONLY.

ELECTRICAL:

In the USA this machine operates on a standard 15 amp 115V, 60 hz, A.C. power circuit. The amp, hertz, and voltage are listed on the data label found on each machine. Using voltages above or below those indicated on the data label will cause serious damage to the motors.

EXTENSION CORDS:

If an extension cord is used, the wire size must be at least one size larger than the power cord on the machine, and must be limited to 50 feet (15.5m) in length.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:

This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, 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 inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounded plug that looks like the plug in “Fig. A”. A temporary adaptor that looks like the adaptor in “Fig. C” may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in “Fig. B”, if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adaptor should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (Fig. A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or wire 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.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

Improper connection of the equipmentgrounding conductor can result in a 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 a proper outlet

installed by a qualified electrician.
