Warning:
Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the
risk of electrical shock. Check with a qualified electrician if
you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly ground-
ed. Do not modify the plug provided with tool. Never remove
the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use tool if the
cord or plug is damaged. Have it repaired before using. If the
plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician. The Handy-Mag
II
must be plugged
into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded
in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The rigid ear
or lug extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box or
receptacle. Simply remove the center screw from the outlet,
insert the adapter and reattach the screw through the green
grounding ear to the outlet. If in doubt of proper grounding,
call a qualified electrician.

Grounding Instructions
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong ground-
ing type plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s
plug. Replace or repair damaged cords. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. When using an exten-
sion cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheat-
ing. See table for the correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate amperage rating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavi-
er the cord.
Extension Cords
Drip Loop:

-
ing the power cord and contacting the power
source, tie a drip loop in the power cord.
