Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric shock.
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

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 Figure A.)
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 Figure A.)
3.
Your 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 following illustration. (See Figure A.)
