Safety Information (continued)
ELECTRICAL SAFETY (SPEED AND WIRING)
□
The no-load speed of this product is approximately
1,700 rpm. This speed is not constant and
decreases under a load or with lower voltage.
□
For voltage, the wiring in a shop is as important as
the motor’s horsepower rating. A line intended only
for lights cannot properly carry a power tool motor.
Wire that is heavy enough for a short distance will
be too light for a greater distance. A line that can
support one power tool may not be able to support
two or three products.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
(GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS)
□
This product must be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk
of electric shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current. This product is equipped with
a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING
:
Improper installation of the grounding plug
may result in a risk of electric shock. When repair or
replacement of the cord or plug is required, do not connect
the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire
with insulation having an outer surface that is green with
or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
□
Substitution of the word “DANGER” for “WARNING”
is not prohibited when the risk associated with the
product is such that a situation exists which if not
avoided will result in death or serious injury.
□
Check with a qualified electrician or service
personnel if these instructions are not completely
understood or if in doubt as to whether the tool is
properly grounded.
□
Do not modify the plug provided; if it will not fit
the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
□
This product is for use on a nominal 120-Volt
circuit and has a grounding plug similar to the
plug shown. Only connect the product to an outlet
having the same configuration as the plug. Do not
use an adapter with this product.
