RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
In the event of a short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of shock by providing an
escape wire for the electrical current. The
SUMP BOSS must be properly grounded.
The SUMP BOSS is equipped with a
cord having a grounding wire with an
appropriate grounding plug. The plug
must be used with an outlet that has been
installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances. The
outlet must be the same conguration as
the plug. Where a two-prong wall outlet is
encountered, it must be replaced; contact
a qualied electrician. To reduce the risk
of electrical shock, the grounding plug
blade must not be cut off at the plug. Do
not use the three-prong plug with a two
prong adapter. Do not attempt to defeat
this safety feature.
Use the SUMP BOSS only with adequate
wiring that is up to code.
Connect to properly grounded outlets only.
The SUMP BOSS is capable of and in-
tended to generate electrical current when
unplugged from the wall outlet or when the
AC power is shut off.
Because the SUMP BOSS uses batter-
ies, both the battery and the power cord
must be disconnected to neutralize the
SUMP BOSS. Failure to disconnect both
the battery and the power cord will result
in electrical shock sufcient to cause injury
or death.
