This tool must be grounded while in use to protect
the operator from electric shock. IN THE EVENT OF A
MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN,
grounding provides the
path of least resistance for electric current and reduces the risk
of electric shock. This tool may be equipped with an electric cord
that has an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding
plug.
The plug MUST Be plugged
into a matching electrical
receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with
ALL
local codes and ordinances.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED.
If it will not fit the electrical receptacle, have the proper electrical
receptacle installed by a
qualified electrician.
IMPROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
of the equipment
grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The
conductor with the green insulation (with or without yellow
stripes) is the equipment grounding conductor. DO NOT connect
the equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal if repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary.
CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN
or service personnel if you do not completely understand the
grounding instructions, or if you are not sure the tool is properly
grounded.
Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-prong
grounding plug and a 3-pole receptacle that accepts the
tool’s plug. Replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
Power tools and machinery are intended for use on a circuit that
has an electrical receptacle as shown in
FIGURE A
that shows
a 10 Amp 3-wire electrical plug and corresponding electrical
receptacle that has a grounding conductor.
If this particular tool has been designed and fitted with a two
prong electrical plug, ensure it displays the ‘Double Insulated’
logo shown in
FIGURE B
, before connecting to a 3- wire
receptacle.
!
Never modify the standard fitted electrical plugs to fit your
receptacle.
