GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
TO PREVENT

AND DEATH FROM
INCORRECT GROUNDING
WIRE CONNECTION
READ AND FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS:
110-120 V~ Grounded Tools: Tools
with Three Prong Plugs
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 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.
2. Do not modify the plug provided – if it
will not fit the outlet, have the proper
outlet installed by a qualified electri-
cian.
3. Improper connection of the equip-
ment-grounding conductor can re-
sult in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an
outer surface that is green with or
without yellow stripes is the equip-
ment-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 qualified 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.
