Grounding; Extension Cords - Grizzly G1022PRO Instruction Manual

Grounding

In the event of an electrical short, grounding pro-
vides electric current a path of least resistance to
reduce the risk of electrical shock. This tool is
equipped with an electric cord having an equip-
ment-grounding conductor which must be proper-
ly connected to a grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
Improper connections of the electrical-grounding
conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The
conductor with green or green and yellow striped
insulation is the electrical-grounding conductor. If
repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug
is necessary, do not connect the equipment
grounding conductor to a live terminal.
This equipment must be

Extension Cords

We do not recommend the use of extension cords
with 220V equipment. It is much better to arrange
the placement of your equipment and the installed
wiring to eliminate the need for extension cords.
Should it be necessary to use an extension, make
sure the cord is rated Hard Service (grade S) or
better. Refer to the chart in Section 1: Safety
Instructions to determine the minimum gauge for
the extension cord when using either 110V or
220V. The extension cord must also contain a
ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace
extension cords when they become worn or dam-
aged.
We have covered some basic electrical
requirements for the safe operation of your
machine. These requirements are not nec-
essarily comprehensive. You must be sure
that your particular electrical configuration
complies with local and state codes.
Ensure compliance by checking with your
local municipality or a licensed electrician.
