Electrical system requirements

CIRCUIT - Individual, properly polarized and grounded 15

amp. branch circuit fused with 15 amp. time delay fuse

or circuit breaker.

POWER SUPPLY - 2 wire, with ground, !20 volt single

phase, 60 Hz, Alternating Current.

Because of potentially inconsistent voltage capabilities,

the use of this washer with power created by gas

powered generators, solar powered generators, wind

powered generators or any other generator other than

the local utility company is not recommended.

Since your washer is equipped with a power supply

cord having an equipment-grounding conductor

and a grounding plug, the plug MUST be plugged

into an appropriate, copper wired receptacle that is

properly installed and grounded in accordance with

all local codes and ordinances or in the absence

of local codes, with the National Electrical Codes,

ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition). If in doubt, caii

a licensed electrician. DO NOT cut off or alter

the grounding prong on the power supply cord. In

situations where a two-slot receptacle is present_

it is the owner's responsibility to have a licensed

electrician replace it with a properly grounded three

prong grounding type receptacle.
