IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS AND WARNING-Electric Devices
When using electric tools, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce
the risk of fire, electrical shock and personal injury, including the following. Read all these
instructions before operating this product and save these instructions.
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 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.
2. Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician.
3. Improper 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.
4. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not
completely.
