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.

Grounded tools: tools with three prong plugs

3-prong plug and Outlet

1. Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three

wire cord and three prong grounding plug. The plug

must be connected to a properly grounded outlet.

If the tool should electrically malfunction or break

down, grounding provides a low resistance path to

carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk

of electric shock.

(See 3-prong plug and Outlet.)

2. The grounding prong in the plug is connected through

the green wire inside the cord to the grounding

system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must

be the only wire connected to the tool’s grounding

system and must never be attached to an electrically

“live” terminal.

(See 3-prong plug and Outlet.)

3. The tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet,

properly installed and grounded in accordance with

all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should

look like those in the preceding illustration.

(See 3-prong plug and Outlet.)

Double insulated tools: tools with two prong plugs

Outlets for 2-prong plug

1. Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not

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.

2. Double insulated tools may be used in either of the

120 volt outlets shown in the preceding illustration.
