Grounding.Requirements
This machine MUST be grounded. In the event of certain
types of malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding provides
a path of least resistance for electric current to travel—in
order to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding wire will
increase the risk of electric shock. The wire with green
insulation (with/without yellow stripes) is the equipment-
grounding wire. If repair or replacement of the power
cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-
grounding wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if you do not understand these grounding requirements,
or if you are in doubt about whether the tool is
properly grounded. If you ever notice that a cord or
plug is damaged or worn, disconnect it from power, and
immediately replace it with a new one.

NEMA 6-15 plug & receptacle.
A NEMA 6-15 plug has a grounding prong that must be
attached to the equipment-grounding wire inside the
included power cord. The plug must only be inserted
into a matching receptacle (see
Figure
) that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
W1768.220V.Connection
The machine must be properly set up
before it is safe to operate. DO NOT
connect this machine to the power
source until instructed to do later in
this manual.
Extension.Cords
We do not recommend using an extension cord with
this machine. Extension cords cause voltage drop, which
may damage electrical components and shorten motor
life. Voltage drop increases with longer extension cords
and smaller gauge sizes (higher gauge numbers indicate
smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine must contain a
ground wire, match the required plug and receptacle, and
meet the following requirements:
W1768.Minimum.AWG................. 16.AWG,.3W,.300V
W1769.Minimum.AWG................. 16.AWG,.4W,.300V
