hazards peculiar to this tool.

2 GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

A.. All grounded, cord-connected toots:

In the event of a maiiunction or breakdown, grounding pro­

vides a path of least resistance for electric current to

reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with

an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor
and 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.

Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet,

have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician,.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conduc­

tor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with
insulation having an outer surface that is green with or
without yeiiow stripes is the equipment-grounding conduc­

tor, If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is

necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding con­
ductor to a live terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the

grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if

in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded

The use of any Extension Cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent over­
heating and motor burn-out, use the table below to deter­
mine the MINIMUM wire size (A.W.G.) Extension Cord.

Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong ground­

ing plugs, and 3-pole receptacles that accept the fool's
