SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
THIS PRODUCT INTENDED FOR PROFESSIONAL USE
For clippers with a 2-prong plug: To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will
fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the
proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
For clippers with a 3-prong plug: This appliance should be grounded. In the
event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock
by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This appliance is equipped
with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER: Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of
electric shock. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the grounding wire to either flat-blade terminal. The wire with insulation
with an outer surface that is green (with or without yellow stripes) is the
grounding wire. Check with a qualified electrician if you do not completely
understand these grounding instructions, or if in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided; if it will not fit
the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This
appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug
(Figure A). A temporary adapter (Figures B & C) may be used to connect this
plug to a 2-pole receptacle (Figure B) if a properly grounded outlet is not
available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded
outlet (Figure A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored
rigid ear, lug, or similar extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet-box cover. Whenever the
adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.
