GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
The washer must be grounded. In the event
of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will
reduce the risk of electrical shock by provid
ing a path of least resistance for electrical
current.
The washer is equipped with a power supply
cord which has a grounding conductor and
three-prong
grounding
plug.
For
proper
grounding, the three-prong grounding plug
must be plugged into an appropriate three-
prong grounded receptacle or outlet (see the
following figure). The receptacle must be
properly installed and grounded in accor
dance with the National Electrical Code and
all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING:
Improper
connection
of
the
grounding conductor or the three-prong
grounding plug of the power supply cord may
result in an electrical shock hazard. If there is
any doubt as to whether the washer is prop
erly grounded, have the installation checked
by a qualified electrician.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED
WITH THE WASHER - If the plug will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified technician.
WARNING: For your
safety and to protect
the test equipment, be
sure that the wall out
let is properly polar
ized and grounded.
