Grounding Instructions
1. This puller should be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric
shock. The powerpack is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and 3-prong grounding type
plug to fit the proper grounding type receptacle. The green conductor in the cord is the
grounding wire. Never connect the green wire to a live terminal. If necessary, an adapter
is available for connecting 3-prong plugs to 2-prong receptacles. The adapter’s
green-colored lug must be connected to a permanent ground, such as a properly
grounded outlet box (See Figures below).
Extension Cords
2. Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding-type plugs and 3-pole receptacles
that accept the powerpack’s plug.
Outdoor Use Extension Cords
3. If used outdoors, the extension cord must be marked with the suffix W-A following the cord type
designation (e.g., STJW-A).
4. Use an extension cord with the proper wire size for the length of the cord. An undersized cord
will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating (See Chart 1 below).
5. Position the cord so that it will be clear of any rotating parts and will not be a trip hazard to the operator.
Don't Abuse Electrical Cord
6. Never lift or carry the powerpack by the cord and never yank the cord to disconnect it from the
receptacle. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
7. Do not use the puller if the switch is malfunctioning. Have it replaced by an authorized service
center.
