Important Safety Information
Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk
of electric shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current. This product is equipped with a
cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING - Improper installation of
the grounding plug can result in a risk
of electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is
necessary, do not connect the green grounding wire
to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation
having a green outer surface with or without yellow
stripes is the grounding wire and must be connected
to the grounding pin.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman
if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if you are in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have
the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug
illustrated below. A temporary adapter which looks
like the adapter illustrated in the figure below may
be used to connect this plug to a 2 pole receptacle as
shown if a properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet as shown below can be
installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored
rigid ear lug or the grounding wire extending from
the adapter must be connected to a permanent
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box
cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held
in place by a metal screw.

Extension Cord Selection
If an extension cord is used, make sure that it is of
the 3-conductor type with NEMA connectors so a
continuous grounding circuit is provided from the
tool to the power circuit receptacle. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. Also, be sure
that the conductor size is large enough to prevent
excessive voltage drop which will cause loss of power
and possible motor damage to the unit. A 14 or 12
gauge cord is recommended.
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be
marked with the suffix W-A following the cord type
designation. For example, SJTW-A to indicate that it
is acceptable for outdoor use.
