Determine that your home's wiring is a three-wire grounded
system. Ask a licensed electrician if you are not certain.
WARNING! The optional electric starter is
equipped with a grounded three-wire power cord
and plug, and is designed to operate on 120 volt AC
household current. It must be used with a properly
grounded three-prong receptacle at all times to
avoid the possibility of electric shock. Follow all
instructions carefully prior to operating the electric
starter.
If you have a grounded three-prong receptacle, proceed as
follows:
Plug the extension cord into the outlet located on the
engine's surface. Plug the other end of extension cord
into a three-prong 120-volt, grounded, AC outlet in a well-
ventilated area.
