Electrocution or a fire can result if the band- saw is not grounded cor- rectly. Make sure all electrical circuits are grounded. Do not use the machine if it is not grounded.
NOTICE
The wire on the power cord with green or green and yellow striped insulation is the grounding conductor.
In the event of an electrical short, grounding pro- vides electric current a path of least resistance to reduce the risk of electrical shock to the operator. Ground the power cord and this machine in accor- dance with all local codes and ordinances.
Operating this machine when it is not properly grounded can result in electric shock or electro- cution.
Should it be necessary to use an extension make sure the cord is rated Hard Service (grade S) or better. Refer to the chart in Section 1: 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.
No single list of electrical guidelines can be comprehensive for all shop environ- ments. Operating this machinery may require additional electrical upgrades spe- cific to your machine and shop environ- ment. It is your responsibility to make sure your electrical systems comply with all local electrical codes and ordinances.
