GROUNDING
TO PREVENT
ELECTRIC SHOCK
AND DEATH FROM INCORRECT
GROUNDING WIRE
CONNECTION:
Check with a qualied electrician
if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded.
Do not modify the power cord
plug provided with the tool.
Never remove the grounding
prong from the plug. Do not use
the tool if the power cord or plug
is damaged. If damaged, have it
repaired by a service facility
before use. If the plug will not t
the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualied
electrician.
The grounding prong in the plug is 2.
connected through the green wire inside
the cord to the grounding system in the
tool. The green wire in the cord must
be the only wire connected to the tool’s
grounding system and must never be
attached to an electrically “live” terminal.
(See 3-Prong Plug and Outlet.)
The tool must be plugged into an 3.
appropriate outlet, properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all codes
and ordinances. The plug and outlet
should look like those in the preceding
illustration. (See 3-Prong Plug and
Outlet.)
Double Insulated Tools: Tools with
Two Prong Plugs
Grounded Tools: Tools with Three
Prong Plugs
3-Prong Plug and Outlet
Tools marked with “Grounding Required” 1.
have a three wire cord and three prong
grounding plug. The plug must be
connected to a properly grounded outlet.
If the tool should electrically malfunction
or break down, grounding provides a
low resistance path to carry electricity
away from the user, reducing the risk of
electric shock. (See 3-Prong Plug and
Outlet.)
Outlets for 2-Prong Plug
Tools marked “Double Insulated” do 1.
not require grounding. They have a
special double insulation system which
satises OSHA requirements and
complies with the applicable standards
of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the
Canadian Standard Association, and the
National Electrical Code. (See Outlets
for 2-Prong Plug.)
Double insulated tools may be used in 2.
either of the 120 volt outlets shown in the
preceding illustration. (See Outlets for
2-Prong Plug.)
