ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Some
models
require
a 115/120-volt
AC,
60-Hz grounded
outlet
protected
with a
15-amp time-delay
fuse or circuit
breaker.
The 3-prong
grounding
plug minimizes
the
possibility
of electric
shock hazard. If the wall
outlet you plan to use is only a 2-prong
outlet,
it is your responsibility
to have it replaced
with
a properly
grounded
3-prong
wall outlet.

Some
models
require
230/208-volt
AC,
protected
with a time-delay
fuse or circuit
breaker. These models
should
be installed
on their own single
branch circuit
for
best performance
and to prevent
overloading
house or apartment
wiring
circuits,
which
could cause a possible
fire hazard from
overheating
wires.
- CAUTION:
Do not, under any circumstances,
cut or
remove
the third (ground)
