GROUNDING
GROUNDED TOOLS: TOOLS WITH THREE PRONG PLUGS
1.
Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong grounding
plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If the Oven should
electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry
electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock.
(See Figure A.)
2.
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 Oven’s grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically “live” terminal.
(See Figure A.)
3.
Your Oven must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like those in the
following illustration.
(See Figure A.)
WARNING!
Improperly connecting the grounding 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 power cord plug provided with the Oven. Never remove the grounding prong from
the plug. Do not use the Oven if the power cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it
repaired by a service facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.

DOUBLE INSULATED APPLIANCES: APPLIANCES WITH TWO PRONG PLUGS
4.
Appliances marked “Double Insulated” do not require grounding. They have a special double
insulation system which satisfies OSHA requirements and complies with the applicable
standards of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian Standard Association, and the
National Electrical Code.
(See Figure B.)
5.
Double insulated tools may be used in either of the 120 volt outlets shown in the following
illustration.
(See Figure B.)
