GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
1. 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 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.
2. Do not modify the plug provided – if it will
not t the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualied electrician.
3. 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 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.
4. Check with a qualied electrician
or service personnel if the grounding
instructions are not completely under-
stood, or if in doubt as to whether the
tool is properly grounded.
5. Use only 3-wire extension cords
that have 3-prong grounding plugs
and 3-pole receptacles that accept the
tool’s plug.
6. Repair or replace damaged or worn
cord immediately.
7. This tool is intended for use on a
circuit that has an outlet that looks like
the one illustrated in Sketch A in the
gure below. The tool has a grounding
plug that looks like the plug illustrated
in Sketch A in the gure below. A
temporary adapter, which looks like the
adapter illustrated in Sketches B and C,
may be used to connect this plug to a
2-pole receptacle as shown in Sketch 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 qualied
electrician. The green-colored rigid
ear, lug, and the like, extending from
the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly
grounded outlet box.
Page 5
8. Keep guards in place and in working
order.
9. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches.
Form the habit of checking to see that keys
and adjusting wrenches are removed from
the tool before turning it on.
10. Keep the work area clean. Cluttered
areas and benches invite accidents.
11. Don’t use in dangerous environments.
Don’t use power tools in damp or wet
locations, or expose them to rain. Keep the
work area well lighted.
12. Keep children away. All visitors should
be kept safe distance from the work area.
13. Make the workshop child proof with
padlocks, master switches, or by removing
starter keys.
14. Don’t force the tool. It will do the job
better and more safely at the rate for which
it was designed.
15. Use the right tool. Don’t force a tool
or attachment to do a job for which it was
not designed.
16. Use a proper extension cord.
Make sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current
your product will draw. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss
of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the
correct size to use, depending on cord length
and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage
number, the heavier the cord.
