GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
During operation, the TreadMaster must be electrically 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 which has 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.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding 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.
The TreadMaster is intended to be connected to a 15 Amp circuit, is for use on a circuit
having a nominal rating of 120 V or 230 V, and is factory-equipped with a specific electric
cord and plug to permit connection to a proper electric circuit.
In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not permitted by the Canadian
Electrical Code.
Make sure that the TreadMaster is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this machine. Failure
to connect the TreadMaster to a proper outlet can result in bodily injury.
