This floor machine must be
grounded. If it should malfunction
or breakdown, grounding provides
a path of least resistance for elec-
trical current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. This machine is equipped with an
equipment-grounded plug.
The plug must be inserted into an
appropriate outlet that is proper-
ly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes
and ordinances If repair or replacement of the
cord or plug is necessary,
DO NOT
connect the grounding wire to
either flat blade terminal. The
insulated wire with an outer
surface that is green with or with-
out yellow stripes is the grounding
wire.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock or injury;
Read all instructions before using this floor machine.
WARNING:
Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electrical shock.

This floor machine must be connected to
a properly grounded outlet only. (See
grounding method below.)
This floor sander is for use on a nominal 120 volt
circuit, and has a grounding plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in (Fig A). A temporary adaptor that
looks like the adaptor illustrated in (Fig B & C) may
be used to connect the plug to a 2-pole receptacle
as shown in (Fig A) if a properly grounded outlet is
not available. The temporary adaptor should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (Fig A) can be installed by
a qualified electrician. The green color rigid ear, lug,
or like extending from the adaptor must be connect-
ed to a permanent ground such as a properly ground-
ed outlet box cover. Whenever the adaptor is used,
it must be held in place by the metal screw (Fig C).
