ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN, grounding provides the path of least
resistance for an 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 outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local
codes and ordi- nances.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed
by a licensed electrician.
IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment grounding conductor can result in electric shock. The
conductor with the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment grounding con-
ductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, DO NOT connect the equip-
ment grounding conductor to a live terminal.
CHECK with a licensed electrician or service personnel if you do
not completely understand the grounding instructions or whether
the tool is properly grounded.
USE ONLY THREE-WIRE EXTENSION CORDS that have
three-pronged plugs and outlets that accept the tool’s plug (Fig. 1).
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
CAUTION:
In all cases, make certain the outlet in question is proper-
ly grounded. If you are not sure, have a licensed electrician check
the outlet.
