2. Consider Work Area Environment
•Do not expose power tools to rain.
•Do not use power tools in damp or wet locations.
•Keep work area well lit.
•Do not use tool in presence of flammable liquids or gases.
3. Guard Against Electric Shock
•Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces. For example: pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerator enclosures.
4. Keep Children Away
•Do not let visitors contact tool or extension cord.
•All visitors should be kept away from work area.
5. Store Idle Tools
•When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry, high and locked-up place, out of reach of children.

WARNING!
Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electrical shock.
Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with tool. Never remove the
grounding prong from the plug. If the cord or plug is damaged, have it repaired
before using. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician. The USA101 must be plugged into an appropriate outlet,
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances.
The plug and outlet should look like those in Figure A.
WARNING!
do not use slugger drilling machines on surfaces or materials being
welded. doing so can result in personal injury and/or damage to the
slugger drilling machine.
grounding instructions
DRIP LOOP: To help prevent cutting fluids from traveling
along power cord and contacting power source, tie a drip
loop in power cord as shown in Figure B.
Fig. B
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding-type plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s
plug. Replace or repair damaged 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. Jancy recommends using a minimum 12 gauge extension cord
not to exceed 100 feet. The table below is supplied only as a guide to minimum gauge for extension cords, where the
smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
