BR-6 SAFETY
• Do not modify the plug provided – if it will not t the outlet; have the proper outlet installed by a
qualied electrician.
• Improper connections of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
The equipment grounding conductor is the insulated conductor that has an outer surface that is
green, with or without yellow stripes. 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 qualied electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not
completely understood, or if in 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 a damaged or worn cord immediately.
WARNING
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one shown in Sketch A.

which looks like the adapter illustrated in Sketches B and C, may be used to connect this plug to a
2-pole receptacle as shown in Sketch 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 qualied electrician. The green-colored rigid ear, plug, and the like, extending from the adapter, must be connected
to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box.
NOTE: Use of a temporary adapter is not permitted in Canada.
