BD-125WP
WARNING
The polisher requires a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). To reduce the risk of electrocution,
keep all connections dry and off the ground. A GFCI is provided as an integral part of the power cord
for the tool. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protectors and may be used with this
equipment. When using an extension cord, the GFCI in the power cord and extension cord connec-
tions need to be kept dry and off the ground.
WARNING
To avoid the possibility of the in-line GFCI getting wet, position it to the side of the work area. A "drip
loop" shown in the picture below, should be arranged by the user to properly protect the GFCI.
The "drip loop" is that part of the cord below the level of the GFCI or the connector, if an extension
cord is used. This method of positioning the cord prevents water traveling along the power cord, com-
ing in contact with the GFCI, extension cord connections or receptacle.
If the GFCI, plug or receptacle get wet, DO NOT unplug the cord. Disconnect the fuse or circuit
breaker that supplies power to the tool. Then unplug and examine all components for presence of
water.
NOTE:
Drip Loop Information - Raise GFCI and plug off the floor with a cardboard carton
or brick or other non-conductive support to prevent water from traveling along the
power cord.
