110-120-Volt, 60 Hz. Tool Information

The plug supplied on your tool may not fit into the outlet you are planning to use. Your local

electrical code may require slightly different power cord plug connections. If these

differences exist refer to and make the proper adjustments per your local code before your

tool is plugged in and turned on.

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, as shown in

Figure A. 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.

A temporary adapter may be used to connect this plug to a 2-prong outlet (as shown in

Figure A), if a properly grounded 3-prong outlet is not available. This temporary adapter

should be used only until a properly grounded 3-prong 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.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric

shock. The condvdor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without

whether the tool is properly grounded, check with a qualified electrician or service

personnel.
