GROUNDING
AND DEATH FROM INCORRECT
GROUNDING WIRE
CONNECTION:
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

TO PREVENT
ELECTRIC SHOCK
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.
(See Outlets for 2-Prong Plug.)

Extension Cords

1. Grounded tools require a three wire
extension cord. Double Insulated
tools can use either a two or
three wire extension cord.
