plug with an earth pin.
In the event that the appliance malfunctions then the earth connection will
redirect the electrical current away from the machine and reduce the risk
of an electrical shock.
WARNING!: If the equipment is not earthed correctly then there is a
risk of electrical shock.
Do not modify the plug supplied with the equipment, if it does not fit the
wall socket then get an electrician to install an electrical socket that does.
This product should be used on a 220-240 volt circuit and has an earthed
plug similar to that shown in Fig. 6.1
