electric shock. This machine is equipped with a pigtail

grounding plug. The pigtail must be inserted into an
appropriate 12 gauge 3 prong extension cord.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conduc-
tor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qual
-
ified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to
whether the outlet is properly grounded. DO NOT
