gROUNdEd PROdUCTs: PROdUCTs WITH THREE PRONg PlUgs

Products marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three
prong grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet.
If the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low
resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric
shock.

(see 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)

The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the
cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the
only wire connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached to
an electrically “live” terminal.

(see 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)

Your product must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should
look like those in the following illustration.
