connect the equipment grounding conductor
to a live terminal if repair or replacement of the
electric cord or plug is necessary.
CHECK
with a qualified electrician or service
personnel if you do not completely under-stand
the grounding instructions, or if you are not sure
the tool is properly grounded.
USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD
THAT HAS A 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG
AND A 3-POLE RECEPTACLE THAT
ACCEPTS THE TOOL’S PLUG. REPLACE A
DAMAGED OR WORN CORD IMMEDIATELY.
This tool is intended for use on a 120V circuit
that has an electrical receptacle as shown in
FIGURE A.
It shows a 3-wire electrical plug and
receptacle that has a grounding conductor. If a
properly grounded electrical receptacle is not
available, an adapter, as shown in
FIG. B
,
can
be used to temporarily connect this plug to a
2-contact ungrounded receptacle. The adapter
has a rigid lug extending from it that
MUST
be
connected to a permanent earth ground, such
as a properly grounded receptacle box.
THIS
ADAPTER IS PROHIBITED IN CANADA.
EXTENSION CORDS
Keep the extension cord
clear of the working area. Position the cord so
that it will not get caught on lumber, tools or
other obstructions while you are working with
a power tool.
Check extension cords
before each use. If damaged replace immedi-
ately. Never use a tool with a damaged cord,
since touching the damaged area could cause
electrical shock, resulting in serious injury.
Use a proper extension cord. Only use cords
listed by Underwriters Laboratories (UL). Other
extension cords can cause a drop in line voltage,
resulting in a loss of power and overheating of
tool. When operating a power tool outdoors, use
an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”.
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce
the risk of electric shock.
THE MACHINE
MUST NOT BE PLUGGED IN AND THE
POWER SWITCH MUST BE IN THE OFF
POSITION UNTIL ASSEMBLY OF THE
PARTS AND ALL ADJUSTMENTS ARE
COMPLETE.
