G0512 Edge Sander

-7-

In the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance to disperse electric cur-
rent. This tool is equipped with a power cord that
has a plug with an equipment-grounding prong.
The outlet must be properly installed and ground-
ed in accordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances.

This machine must have a ground prong in
the plug to help ensure that it is grounded.
DO NOT remove ground prong from plug to
fit into a two-pronged outlet! If the plug will
not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.

Electrocution or fire could
result if this machine is
not grounded correctly.
Make sure all electrical
circuits are grounded
before you connect them
to the machine. DO NOT
use this machine if it is
not grounded.

220V Operation

We do not recommend the use of extension cords
on 220V equipment. Instead, arrange the place-
ment of your equipment and the installed wiring to
eliminate the need for extension cords.

If you find it absolutely necessary to use an
extension cord at 220V with your Grizzly Edge
Sander:

Make sure the cord is rated for Standard
Service (grade S) or better.

The extension cord must also contain a
ground wire and plug prong.

Use at least a 16 gauge cord if the cord is 50
feet long or less.

Use at least a 14 gauge cord if the cord is
between 51-100 feet.

110V Operation
If you find it necessary to use an extension cord
at 110V with your Grizzly Edge Sander:

Make sure the cord is rated Standard Service
(grade S) or better.

The extension cord must also contain a
ground wire and plug pin.

Use at least a 10 gauge cord if the cord is 50
feet long or less.

DO NOT use a cord longer that 50 feet!
