PROPI]RLY GROUNDED
3-PRONG OUTLET
Plug power cord into 110-120V properly grounded type
outlet protected by a 1S-amp. time delay or Circuit-Saver
fuse or circuit breaker.
IF YOU ARE NOT SURE THAT YOUR OUTLET IS
PROPERLY GROUNDED, HAVE IT CHECKED BY A
QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
WARNING: DO NOT PERMIT FINGERS TO TOUCH
THE TERMINALS OF PLUG WHEN INSTALLING OR
REMOVING THE PLUG TO OR FROM THE OUTLET.
WARNING: IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED THIS
POWER TOOL CAN INCUR THE POTENTIAL HAZARD
OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK; PARTICULARLY WHEN
USED IN DAMP LOCATIONS,/ IN PROXIMITY TO

CONTACTING THE ABRASIVE BELT OR DISC.
This SandertGrinder is equipped with a 3-conductor cord
and grounding type plug which has a grounding prong,
approved by Underwriters _ Laboratories and the Canadian
Standards Association. The ground conductor has a green
lug and is attached tO the tool housing at one end and to the
ground prong in the attachment plug at the other end.
This plug requires a mating 3-conductor grounded type
outlet as shown.
If the outlet you are planning to use for this
Sander/Grinder is of the two prong type DO NOT
REMOVE OR ALTER THE GROUNDING PRONG iN
ANY MANNER. Use an adapter as shown and always
connect the grounding lug to a known ground.
It is recommended that you have a qualified electrician
replace the TWO prong outlet with a properly grounded
THREE prong outlet.
An adapter as shown below is available for connecting plugs
to 2-prong receptacles. The green grounding lug extending
from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground
such as to a properly grounded outlet box.

NOTE: The adapter illustrated is for use only if you already
have a properly grounded 2-prong receptacle. Adapter is
not allowed in Canada by the Canadian Electrical Code.
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent
over-heating and motor burn-out, use the table below to
determine the minimum wire size (A,W.G.) extension cord,
Use only 3 wire extension cords which have 3 prong
grounding type plugs and 3-pole receptacles which will
accept the plug on the Sander/Grinder.
