17
Check with a qualified
electrician or service personnel if the
grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the
tool is properly grounded. Failure to comply
may cause serious or fatal injury.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept
the tool's plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord
immediately.
2. Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for
use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating
less
than 150 volts:
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
outlet that looks like the one illustrated in A, Figure
7-1. An adapter, shown in B and C, may be used to
connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown
in B if a properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualified electrician. The green-colored rigid ear,
lug, and the like, extending from the adapter must
be connected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box.
In Canada, the use of a temporary adaptor is not
permitted by the Canadian Electrical Code, C22.1.
3. Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for
use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating
between
150 - 250 volts , inclusive:
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
outlet that looks like the one illustrated in D, Figure
7-1. The tool has a grounding plug that looks like
the plug illustrated in D. Make sure the tool is
connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adapter is available
or should be used with this tool. If the tool must be
reconnected for use on a different type of electric
circuit, the reconnection should be made by
qualified service personnel; and after reconnection,
the tool should comply with all local codes and
ordinances.

Extension cords
The use of extension cords is discouraged. Try to
position machines within reach of the power
source. If an extension cord must be used, make
sure it is 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
overheating. Table 3 shows correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

On/off switch lock-out
The Table Saw is equipped with a push-button
switch that will accept a safety padlock, as shown
in Figure 7-3. To safeguard your machine from
unauthorized operation and accidental starting by
young children, the use of a padlock (not included)
is highly recommended. Place the key in a location
that is inaccessible to children and others not
qualified to use the tool.
