cONNEctION:

Check with a qualified electrician
if you are in doubt as to whether
the outlet is properly grounded.
Do not modify the power cord
plug provided with the tool.
Never remove the grounding
prong from the plug. Do not use
the tool if the power cord or plug
is damaged. If damaged, have it
repaired by a service facility

before use. If the plug will not fit
the outlet, have a proper outlet

installed by a qualified
electrician.

Double Insulated tools: tools with

two prong plugs

Outlets for 2-prong plug

Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not

1.

require grounding. They have a special

double insulation system which satisfies
OSHA requirements and complies with
the applicable standards of Underwriters
Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian
Standard Association, and the National
Electrical Code.

Double insulated tools may be used in

2.

either of the 120 volt outlets shown in the
preceding illustration. (See Outlets for
2-prong plug.)

Extension cords

Grounded

1.

tools require a three wire

extension cord. Double Insulated
tools can use either a two or three wire
extension cord.

As the distance from the supply outlet

2.

increases, you must use a heavier gauge
extension cord. Using extension cords
with inadequately sized wire causes a
serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss
of power and possible tool damage.
(See table A.)

The smaller the gauge number of the

3.

wire, the greater the capacity of the cord.
For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry
a higher current than a 16 gauge cord.
(See table A.)
