desired location. To reduce the risk of injury, use

extreme caution while moving the vibration plat-

form. Do not move the vibration platform over an

uneven surface.

OW TO PLUG IN THE POWER CORD

This product must be earthed. If it should malfunc-

tion or break down, earthing provides a path of least

resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of

electric shock. This product is equipped with a power

cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and an

earthing plug. IMPORTANT: If the power cord is

damaged, it must be replaced with a manufacturer-

recommended power cord.

Plug the

power cord

into the

receptacle

on the base.

Next, plug

the power

cord into an

appropriate

outlet that is

properly

installed and

earthed in

accordance

with all local

codes and

ordinances. Note: Your power cord and outlet may

appear different. IMPORTANT: The vibration plat-

form is not compatible with GFCI-equipped out-

lets.
