Grounding Instructions

This product 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 product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-

grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be connected to an

appropriate GFCI outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with

all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper

outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with

insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is

the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord

or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live

terminal.

are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the bowling machine

is properly grounded.
