CONNECTION TO THE POWER SUPPLY
CONTENTS
Electrical Safety
1. Double Insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.)
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three
wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
2.
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electrical shock if your body is grounded.
3. Don't expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electrical shock.
4. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from the outlet.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electrical shock.
Extension Cords
1. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate Ampere rating. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
2. When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or "W".
These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electrical shock.
3. Use only UL listed extension cords. Inspect extension cord before use and never use damaged
or altered extension cords. Follow extension cord manufacturer safety instruction.
4. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electrical shock.
