Grounding Instructions
This product should be grounded. In the event of an electrical short cir-
cuit, 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 accor-
dance with all local codes and ordinances.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a three-
prong grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Figure 2. Make
sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adapter could be used with this product.
The use of a GFCI outlet is strongly recommended. The third prong is
to be used ground the tool and provide protection against electrical
shock. Never remove the third prong.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instruc-
tions are not completely understood, or if In doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided; if it will
not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. If
repair or replacement of the cord is necessary, do not
