Grizzly G0516 instruction manual Grounding, Typical 110V plug and outlet

Grounding

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 prong. See Figure

1.The outlet must be properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Verify that any existing electrical outlet and cir- cuit you use is actually grounded. If not, it will be necessary to run a sepa- rate 12 A.W.G. copper grounding wire from the outlet to a known ground. If not grounded properly, serious personal injury could occur.

This machine must have a ground prong in the plug to help ensure that it is grounded. DO NOT remove ground prong from plug to fit into a two-pronged outlet! If the plug will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
