Grounding Instructions - Craftsman 152.229000 Instruction Manual

THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED while in use to
protect the operator from eUectric shock.
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAK-
DOWN, grounding provides the path of bast resistance
for eUectric current and reduces the risk of eUectric
shock. This tooUis equipped with an eUectric cord that
has an equipment-grounding conductor and a ground-
ing pDg. The pUugMUST be pDgged into a matching
eUectrbaUreceptacle that is properUy installed and
grounded in accordance with ALL bcaU codes and
ordinances.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. if it wHU not
fit the eUectrbaUreceptacb, have the proper eUectrbaU
receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
IMPROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTION of the equip°
ment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric
shock. The conductor with the green insulation (with
or without yellow stripes) is the equipment-grounding
conductor. DO NOT connect the equipment-grounding
conductor to a live terminal if repair or replacement of
the electric cord or plug is necessary.
CHECK with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if you do not completely understand the grounding
instructions, or if you are not sure the tool is properly
grounded.
The motor supplied with your drill press is a 120 volt,
singb-phase motor. Never connect the green wire to a
live terminal.
USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS
A 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE
RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL'S PLUG.
REPLACE A DAMAGED OR WORN CORD IMMEDI-
ATELY.
This too[ is intended for use on a circuit that has an
electrical receptacle as shown in FIGURE !-1.
FIGURE !-! shows a 3-wire electrical plug and electri-
cal receptacle that has a grounding conductor. If a
properly grounded electrical receptacle is not available,
an adapter as shown in FIGURE 1-2 can be used to
temporarily connect this plug to a 2-contact ungrounded
receptacle. The adapter has a rigid lug extending from
it that MUST be connected to a permanent earth
ground, such as a properly grounded receptacle box.
THIS ADAPTER IS PROHIBITED IN CANADA.
CAUTION: In all cases, make certain the electrical
receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you are
not sure have a certified electrician check the electrical
receptacle.
This Drill Press is for indoor use only, Do not expose to
rain or use in damp locations,
