SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
THE USE OF AN EXTENSION CORD
WITH THIS MACHINE IS NOT RECOMMENDED. For
best power and safety, plug the machine directly into a
dedicated, grounded electrical outlet that is within the
supplied cord length of the machine.
If and extension cord needs to be used, it should only
be for a limited operation of the machine. The exten-
sion cord should be as short as possible in length, and
have a minimum gauge size of 14AWG.
Check extension cords before each
use. If damaged replace immediately. 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 out-
doors, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”.
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk
of electric shock.
DO NOT MODIFY ANY PLUG. If it will not fi t the electrical
receptacle, have the proper electrical receptacle installed
by a qualifi ed electrician.
IMPROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTION of the
equipment grounding conductor can result in risk of
electric shock. The conductor with the green insulation
(with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment ground-
ing conductor. DO NOT connect the equipment grounding
conductor to a live terminal if repair or replacement
of the electric cord or plug is necessary.
CHECK with a qualifi ed electrician or service personnel if
you do not completely understand the grounding
instructions, or if you are not sure the tool is properly
grounded when installing or replacing a plug.
USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS
THE PROPER TYPE OF A 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG
THAT MATCHES THE MACHINE’S 3-PRONG PLUG AND
ALSO THE 3-POLE RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE
TOOL’S PLUG. *
REPLACE A DAMAGED OR WORN CORD
IMMEDIATELY.
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
electrical receptacle as shown in
FIGURE A.
It shows a
3-wire electrical plug and electrical receptacle that has
a grounding conductor. If a properly grounded electrical
receptacle is not available, an adapter as shown in
FIGURE 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.
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN,
grounding provides the path of least resistance for electric
current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool
is equipped with an electric cord that has an equipment
grounding conductor and requires a grounding plug (not
included). The plug MUST be plugged into a matching elec-
trical receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with ALL local codes and ordinances.
THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED
WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM
ELECTRIC SHOCK.
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 your power tool.
* Canadian electrical codes require extension cords
to be certifi ed SJT type or better.
** The use of an adapter in Canada is not acceptable.
