WARNING
DO NOT OPERATE TOOL UNTIL YOU HAVE READ
THOROUGHLY, AND UNDERSTAND COMPLETELY,
ALL INSTRUCTIONS, RULES, ETC. ON THIS PAGE,
AND IN THE OPERATING MANUAL. WHEN USING
ELECTRIC TOOLS, BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
SHOULD ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED TO REDUCE RISK
OF FIRE, ELECTRIC SHOCK, AND PERSONAL IN-
JURY, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
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 con-
ductor 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 out-
let, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electri-
cian.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conduc-
tor can result in a risk of electric shock. The green con-
ductor with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-
grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the elec-
tric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equip-
ment-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 ground-
ing plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s
plug. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immedi-
ately.

tool, a guard or other part that is damaged should be
carefully checked to determine that it will operate prop-
erly and perform its intended function. Check for align-
ment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may
