3. Check
with a licensed electrician or service personnel if you do not completely
understand the grounding instructions or whether the tool is properly grounded.
4. Use only three-wire extension cords
that have three-pronged plugs and outlets
that accept the tool’s plug. Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
CAUTION!
In all cases, make certain the outlet in question is properly grounded. If
you are not sure, have a licensed electrician check the outlet.
GUIDELINES AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR EXTENSION CORDS
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current
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 ordinances.
1. Do not modify the plug provided.
If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a licensed
electrician.
2. 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 conductor. If repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, DO NOT connect the equipment grounding conductor
to a live terminal.
1. Examine extension cord before use.
Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good condition.
Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
2. Do not abuse extension cord.
Do not pull on cord to disconnect from receptacle; always disconnect by pulling
on plug. Disconnect the extension cord from the receptacle before disconnecting the product from the extension
cord. Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp/wet areas.
3. Use a separate electrical circuit for your tool.
This circuit must not be less than a 12-gauge wire and should
be protected with a 15A time-delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch
is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on the motor nameplate.
Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.

your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheat-
ing. The table below shows the correct size to be used according to cord length and ampere rating. When in doubt,
use a heavier cord. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
