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 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.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
ALL GROUNDED, CORD-CONNECTED TOOLS: 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. Do not
modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Im-
proper 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.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood,
or if it doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool's
plug. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.
Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating less than 150 volts:
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. A. The tool has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig. A. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illus-
trated in Fig. B and C, may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in Fig. 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 qualified 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.
