We do not recommend the use of extension cords
with 220V equipment. Instead, arrange the place-
ment of your equipment and the installed wiring to
eliminate the need for extension cords. Should
the situation be necessary to use an extension,
make sure the cord is rated Hard Service (grade
S) or better. Refer to the chart in

Section 1:

Safety Instructions

to determine the minimum

gauge for the extension cord when using either
110V or 220V. The extension cord must also con-
tain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or
replace extension cords when they become worn
or damaged.

Grounding

Extension Cords

In the event of an electrical short, grounding pro-
vides electric current a path of least resistance to
reduce the risk of electrical shock. This tool is
equipped with an electric cord having an equip-
ment-grounding conductor which must be proper-
ly connected to a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.

Improper connections of the electrical-grounding
conductor can result in the risk of electric shock.
The conductor with green or green and yellow
striped insulation is the electrical-grounding con-
ductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord
or plug is necessary, do not connect the equip-
ment grounding conductor to a live terminal.

This equipment must be
grounded. Verify that any
existing electrical outlet
and circuit you intend to
plug into is actually
grounded. Under no cir-
cumstances should the
grounding pin from any
three-pronged plug be
removed. Serious injury
may occur.

If you are unsure about
the correct installation or
modification of electrical
circuits, please consult
the advice of a qualified
electrician. Failure to do
so could result in serious
personal injury.

We have covered some basic electrical
requirements for the safe operation of
your machine. These requirements are not
necessarily comprehensive. You must be
sure that your particular electrical configu-
ration complies with local and state codes.
Ensure compliance by checking with your
local municipality or a licensed electrician.
