ELECTRICAL INFORMATION

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR
BREAKDOWN,
grounding provides the path of least
resistance for an electric current and reduces
the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped
with an electric cord that has 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
installed by alicensed electrician.
IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment
grounding conductor can result in electric
shock. The conductor with the green
insulation (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 licensed electrician or
service personnel if you do not completely
understand the grounding instructions or
whether the tool is properly grounded.
CAUTION!
WARNING!
GUIDELINES FOR EXTENSION
CORDS
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. The table
below shows the correct size to be used
according to cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. When in doubt, use a heavier
cord. The smaller the gauge number, the
6
heavier the cord.
Make sure your extension cord is properly
wired and in good condition. Always replace
a damaged extension cord or have it repaired
Protect your extension cords from sharp
objects, excessive heat and damp/wet areas.

Use a separate electrical circuit for your tools.
This circuit must not be less than a #12 wire
and should be protected with a 15 A time-
delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor
to the power line, make sure the switch is in
the OFF position and the electric current is
rated the same as the current stamped on the
motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage
will damage the motor.
