INSTALLATION (Contd.)
Electrical Connections:
Important
(Please read carefully.)
CAUTION:
The condenser on the
Gas-Oil unit contains an immer-
sion heater.
The unit must not
.
be connected to a power source
unless the condenser is filled
with liquid and the line switch
is in the "Off" position.
This
will prevent
the heater from
burning out.
WARNING :
For personal
safety,
this apparatus must be properly
grounded.
I
The power cord of this instrument is
equipped with a three-prong (grounding)
plug which mates with a standard three-
prong (grounding) wall receptacle to
minimize the possibility of electric
shock hazard from this apparatus.
The
user should have the wall receptacle
and
circuit
checked by a qualified
electrician to make sure the receptacle
is properly grounded.
Where a two-
prong receptacle is encountered, it is
the personal responsibility and obliga-
tion of the user to have it replaced
with a properly grounded three-prong
wall receptacle.
WARNING:
DO NOT, under any cir-
cumstances,
cut or remove the
third (ground) prong from the
power cord.
DO NOT use a two-
prong adapter plug.
.
Determine the total amount of current
presently being used by other apparatus
connected to the circuit that will be
used for this unit.
It is critical
that the added current demand and other
equipment on the circuit not exceed the
rating of the fuse or circuit breaker
in use.
