WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, grinding, miscellaneous
construction activities, as well as contents from the machine in-
cluding the molding, wiring, grinding wheel, or any other parts
may contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm and can be haz-
ardous to your health.
WARNING:
Keep your WORK SHARP unit and the work space clean for
best performance and safety. Do not let sharpening debris accu-
mulate on, in or around the WORK SHARP Wood Tool Sharp-
ener. Accumulated fine metal sharpening debris can be very hot
and may present a fire danger if the machine or your workspace
is not properly cleaned and maintained. Accumulated sharpen-
ing debris can also degrade the life of your WORK SHARP unit
and cause premature wear on some components.
If sharpening debris has accumulated, do not immediately throw
it into a trash receptacle without ensuring the debris is com-
pletely cool and free of heat. Improperly disposing of the accu-
mulated sharpening debris may present a fire risk. The WORK
SHARP The Wood Tool Sharpener has been designed to sus-
pend the sharpening debris as long as possible and disperse the
debris onto the workspace behind the tool. This maximizes the
opportunity to cool the sharpening debris being produced. Do not
collect the sharpening debris during sharpening. This increases
the risk of heat build up in the debris and the potential for fire.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS: In the event of a malfunctions or
breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an
electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and ground-
ing plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with
insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yel-
low stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or re-
placement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect
the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal. Check with
a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instruc-
tions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the
tool is properly grounded. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord
immediately
THIS TOOL IS INTENDED FOR USE ON A CIRCUIT THAT HAS AN
OUTLET THAT LOOKS LIKE THE ONE ILLUSTRATED IN FIGURE
A. The tool has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated
in figure A. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter il-
lustrated in figures B and C, may be used to connect this plug to a
2-pole receptacle as shown in figure B if a properly grounded outlet
is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the
adaptor must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly
grounded outlet box.
