LONGEST OF THE 3 BLADES
This tool is intended for use on a normal 120-volt circuit
and has a grounded plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in Fig. 12.
If a properly grounded outlet is not available, a temporary
adapter, shown in Fig. 13, may be used for connecting
the 3-prong grounding type plug to a 2-prong receptacle.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified
electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug, or the like
extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet
box. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in
place with a metal screw.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is
not permitted by the Canadian Electric Code.
CAUTION: IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE RE-
CEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED.
IF YOU ARE NOT SURE HAVE A CERTIFIED ELEC-
TRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM
ELECTRIC SHOCK.
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides 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 conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with
insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If
repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to
a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or
if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding
type plugs and 3-hole receptacles that accept the tool’s plug, as shown in Fig. 12.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.
