ELECTRIC MOTOR SAFETY

For maintenance care and operation of the electric motor, refer to your electric motor instruction book-
let furnished with the electric motor. Protect the electric motor from dust as much as possible and keep
ventilating openings clean. Before plugging in the machine, make sure that the outlet voltage is within
ON
the voltage marked on the machines's data plate.
CAUTION
DO NOT spray water on the electric motor. DO NOT touch the plug with wet hands. To reduce
the risk of electrocution, keep all connections dry and off the ground.
DO NOT operate electric motor in an explosive environment.
DO NOT EXPOSE TO RAIN
ON
DO NOT expose to rain or use in damp locations.
WARNING
If operating the equipment in damp locations is unavoidable, ALWAYS use a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter, ALWAYS wear rubber gloves and footwear in damp conditions.
ON
DO NOT abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the equipment or to pull the plug from
the outlet. Keep the cord away from heat, sharp edges, and moving parts. Replace dam-
ON
aged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electrocution, keep all connections dry and off the ground. A Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) to be used for this
machine. Receptacles are available having built-in GFCI protections and may be used for this
ON
measure of safety. When using an extension cord, GFCI should be installed closest to the power
source, followed by the extension cord and lastly, the machine.
WARNING
The water pump requires a GFCI. To reduce risk of electrical shock when operating the machine
with the pump plugged into the 3-pole receptacle on the motor, connect the saw to a GFCI outlet.
See the pump manual and informational tags enclosed separately for all pump information.
WARNING
To avoid the possibility of the appliance plug or receptacle getting wet, position the machine to one
side of a wall mounted receptacle. This will prevent water from dripping onto the receptacle or plug. A
"drip loop," shown in the picture below, should be arranged by the user to properly position the power
cord relative to the power source.
