Grounding

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you find it necessary to use an extension cord with the Model G8793, make sure the cord is rated Hard Service (grade S) or better. Refer to the chart in the standard safety instructions to determine the minimum gauge for the extension cord. The extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords when they become worn or damaged.

We do not recommend the use of extension cords on 220V equipment. It is much better to arrange the placement of your equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate the need for exten- sion cords.

In the event of an electrical short, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance to disperse electric cur- rent. This tool is equipped with a power cord hav- ing an equipment-grounding conductor. See Figures 1 and 2. The outlet must be properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

This equipment must be grounded. Verify that any existing electrical outlet and circuit you intend to plug into is actually ground- ed. If it is not, it will be necessary to run a separate 12 A.W.G. copper grounding wire from the outlet to a known ground. Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any three-pronged plug be removed. Serious injury may occur.
