This ptug requires a mating 3-conductor grounded type
outlet as shown.
electrical requirements
If the outlet you are planning to use for this power tool is of
the two prong type DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER THE
GROUNDING PRONG tN ANY MANNER. Use an adapter
as shown and always connect the g rounding lug to known
ground.
It is recommended that you have a qualified electrician
replace the TWO prong outlet with a property grounded
THREE prong outlet.
A temporary adapter as shown betow is available for
connecting plugs to 2-prong receptacles. The green
grounding lug extending from the adapter must be con-
nected to a permanent ground such as to a properly
