Milwaukee 0300-20 - Manual (Page 3)

5 4
The grounding prong in the plug is con-
nected 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 ground-
ing system and must never be attached to
an electrically “live” terminal.
Your tool must be plugged into an appro-
priate outlet, properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all codes and
ordinances. The plug and outlet should look
like those in Figure A.
Double Insulated Tools:
Tools with Two Prong Plugs
Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not re-
quire grounding. They have a special
double insulation system which satisfies
OSHA requirements and complies with the
applicable standards of Underwriters Labo-
ratories, Inc., the Canadian Standard As-
sociation and the National Electrical Code.
Double Insulated tools may be used in ei-
ther of the 120 volt outlets shown in
Figures B and C.
Grounded Tools:
Tools with Three Prong Plugs
Tools marked “Grounding Required” have
a three wire cord and three prong ground-
ing plug. The plug must be connected to a
properly grounded outlet (See Figure A). If
the tool should electrically malfunction or
break down, grounding provides a low re-
sistance path to carry electricity away from
the user, reducing the risk of electric shock.

Fig. A
Improperly connecting the
grounding wire can result in the
risk of electric 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 the tool. Never remove the
grounding prong from the plug.
Do not use the tool if the cord or
plug is damaged. If damaged,
have it repaired by a MILWAUKEE
service facility before use. If the
plug will not fit the outlet, have a
proper outlet installed by a quali-
fied electrician.
GROUNDING
WARNING! 1. Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an opera-
tion where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact
with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
2. Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal
injury.
3. Wear ear protectors with impact drills. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
4. Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry important information. If
unreadable or missing, contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free replacement.
5. WARNING! Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or
other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paint
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specifically
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
