Nah....just 13 words, counting prepositions Icon_lol

This is one step further from TO: those have it engraved on the chassis, so it is not even that visible. Until you really look.

Yes, and don't try to use the polarized plug on your replacement line cord.

The photo is exactly what mine looks like. See the small hole on the bottom right side of the cabinet? What is that for?

A photo would help.


Rod,

of course, all the plugs I order for the portables are non-pol. Not just that, but also should have a short boot/overmold, as many plug from behind and not from the top (as in the original 7G605 T/O) and this will keep the back cover from closing. I had trouble getting one, but found a vendor eventually.
