SAFETY INFORMATION
DANGER
-
Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor
can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation
having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is
the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the
cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding
conductor to a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or
service person if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the [tool/appliance] is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug connected to the [tool/appliance] –
if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
FOR GROUNDED, CORD-CONNECTED [TOOL/APPLIANCE] RATED
LESS THAN 15A AND INTENDED FOR USE ON A NOMINAL 120V
SUPPLY CIRCUIT
The appliance is for use on a nominal 120V circuit and should be
connected to a grounding outlet that looks like the one illustrated
below. The use of a temporary adaptor is not recommended.
POWER SUPPLY CORD
1. Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety
hazards under certain conditions. Have a qualified electrician or
serviceman to install an outlet near the appliance.
2. If it is absolutely necessary to use an extension cord, extreme care
must be exercised.
a) Use only a grounding type 3-wire extension cord that has a
3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the
plug on the appliance.
b) The marked electrical rating of the extension cord must equal to or
greater than the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord
should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top
or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over
unintentionally.
NOTE:
Neither
BLACK+DECKER
nor the dealer can accept any liability for
damage to the product or personal injury resulting from failure to
observe the electrical connection procedures.
