CONNECTING TO POWER SOURCE OUTLET
This machine must be grounded white in use to protect
the ofjerator from electric shock.
Plug power cord into a 120V properly grounded type outlet
protected by a 15-amp. dual element time delay or CircuitSaver fuse or circuit breaker.
If you are not sure that your outlet is properly grounded,
have it checked by a qualified electrician.
WARNING: DO NOT PERMIT FINGERS TO TOUCH THE
TERMINALS OF PLUGS WHEN INSTALLING OR RE
MOVING THE PLUG TO OR FROM THE OUTLET.
WARNING: IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED THIS
POWER TOOL CAN INCUR THE POTENTIAL HAZARD
OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. PARTICULARLY WHEN USED
IN DAMP LOCATIONS IN PROXIMITY TO PLUMBING.
IF AN ELECTRICAL SHOCK OCCURS THERE IS THE
POTENTIAL OF A SECONDARY HAZARD SUCH AS
YOUR HANDS CONTACTING THE ABRASIVE BELT
OR DISC.
If power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way, have
it replaced immediately.
Your unit is wired for 120 volts and has a plug that looks like
the one shown below.
If the outlet you are planning to use for this power tool is
of the two prong type DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER
THE GROUNDING PRONG IN ANY MANNER, Use an
adapter as shown and always connect the grounding lug to
known ground.
It is recommended that you have a qualified electrician
replace the TWO prong outlet with a properly grounded
THREE prong outlet,
A temporary adapter as shown below is available for
connecting plugs to 2-prong receptacles. The green ground
ing lug extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as to a properly grounded outlet
box.
Atemporary adapter asillustrated is available for connecting
plugs to 2-prong receptacles. The temporary adapter should
be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be
installed by a qualified electrician.
NOTE: The adapter illustrated is for use only if you already
have a properly grounded 2-prong receptacle.
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent over
heating and motor burn-out, use the table below to deter
