GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: THIS TO O L MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding con- ductor and 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 ordi- nances.

Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the out- let, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electri- cian.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding con- ductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding con- ductor.Ifrepair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely under- stood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.

Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding type plugs and 3-hole receptacles that accept the tool’s plug, as shown in Fig. 18.

Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an out- let and a plug that looks like the one shown in Fig. 18. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illus- trated in Fig. 19, may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle, as shown in Fig. 19, if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. THIS ADAPTER IS NOT APPLICABLE IN CANADA. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box, as shown in Fig. 19.

CAUTION: IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE RE- CEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE HAVE A CERTIFIED ELEC- TRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.

EXTENSION CORDS

Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and a 3-pole receptacle which will accept the tool s plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the sander.An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. 20, shows the correct gage to use de- pending on cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
