POWER CORD SAFETY
The battery charger is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit, and has
a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Figure A. A
temporary adapter, which looks like the plug illustrated in Figures B
and C may be used to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle as
shown in Figure B if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The
temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet
can be installed by a qualified electrician.
DANGER: Before using an adapter as shown in the following
illustration, be certain that center screw of outlet plate is grounded.
The green-colored rigid ear or lug extending from adapter must be
connected to a properly grounded outlet– make certain it is grounded.
If necessary, replace the original outlet cover plate screw with a longer
screw that will secure the adapter ear or lug to outlet cover plate and
make ground connection to a grounded outlet.
