GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
1.
All
grounded,
cord
connected
tools:
In
the
event
of
a
malfunction
or
breakdown,
grounding
provides
a
path
of
least
resistance
for
electric
current to
reduce
the
risk
of
electric
shock.
This
tool
is
equipped
with
an
electric
cord
having
an
equipment-
grounding
conductor
and
a
grounding
plug.
The
plug
must
be
plugged
into
a
matching
outlet
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
outlet,
have
the
proper
outlet
installed
by
a
qualified
electrician.
Improper
connection
of
the
equipment-grounding
conductor
can
result
in
a
risk
of
electric
shock.
The
conductor
with
insulation
having
an
outer
surface
that
is
green,
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
personnel
if
the
grounding
instructions
are
not
completely
understood,
or
if
in
doubt
as
to
whether
the
tool
is
properly
grounded.
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.

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
Sketch
A,
Fig. A.
The
tool
has
a
grounding
plug
that
looks
like
the
plug
illustrated
in
Sketch
A.
A
temporary
adapter,
which
looks
like
the
adapter
illustrated
in
Sketches
B
and
C
in
Fig.
A,
may
be
used
to
connect
this
plug
to
a
2-pole
receptacle
as
shown
in
Sketch
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.
Note: In Canada, the use of a
temporary adapter is not permitted
by the Canadian Electrical Code.
WARNING:If the replacement of the SUPPLY
CORD is necessary, this has to be done
by the manufacturer or his agent in order
to avoid a safety hazard
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
Sketch
D
Fig. A.
The
tool
has
a
grounding
plug
that
looks
like
the
plug
illustrated
in
Sketch
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
Use
proper
extension
cord.
Make
sure
your
extension
cord
is
in
good
condition.
When
using
an
extension
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
overheating.
Fig. B
shows
the
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.
