GROUNDING

WARNING

Improperly connecting the ground-
ing wire can result in the risk of 

electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician 

if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is 

properly grounded. Do not modify the plug pro-
vided with the tool. Never remove the grounding 
prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if the 
cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it 

repaired by a MILWAUKEE service facility before 

use.  If  the  plug  will  not  fit  the  outlet,  have  a 

proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Grounded Tools (Three-Prong Plugs)

Tools  marked  “Grounding  Required”  have  a  three 

wire cord and three prong grounding plug. The plug 

must be connected to a properly grounded outlet 

(See  Figure A).  If  the  tool  should  electrically  mal

-

function or break down, grounding provides a low 
resistance path to carry electricity away from the 

user, reducing the risk of electric shock.

The grounding prong in the plug is connected through 
the green wire inside the cord to the grounding 

system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must 

be the only wire connected to the tool's grounding 
system and must never be attached to an electrically 

“live” terminal.

Your tool must be plugged into an appro-

Fig. A

priate outlet, properly installed and 
grounded in accordance with all codes 

and ordinances. The plug and outlet 

should look like those in Figure A.

Double Insulated Tools (Two-Prong Plugs)

Tools  marked  “Double  Insulated”  do  not  require 

grounding. They  have  a  special  double  insulation 

system which satisfies OSHA requirements and 
complies with the applicable standards 

Fig. B Fig. C

of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the 

Canadian Standard Association and 

the  National  Electrical  Code.  Double 

Insulated tools may be used in either 

of the 120 volt outlets shown in Figures 

B and C.
