ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric
current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is
equipped with an electric cord that has an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug MUST be plugged
into a matching 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 receptacle, have the proper receptacle installed by a
qualified electrician.
IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor
with green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is
the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement
of the electric 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 you
do not completely understand the grounding instructions,
or if you are not sure the tool is properly grounded.
Refer to nether picture:
To avoid electrical hazards, fire hazards,
or damage to the tool, use proper circuit protection.
Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools. To avoid shock
or fire, if power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way,
have it replaced immediately.
