CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65
This product or its power cord may contain chemicals, including lead,
known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contain chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
─Lead from lead-based paints
─Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products
─Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do
this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in a
well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment,
such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
WEAR PROTECTIVE GEAR.
ELECTRICAL
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
1. BEFORE CONNECTING THE MACHINE to the power source, verify that the
voltage of your power supply corresponds with the voltage specified on the
motor I.D. nameplate. A power source with greater voltage than needed can
result in serious injury to the user as well as damage to the machine. If in
doubt, contact a qualified electrician before connecting to the power source.
2. THIS TOOL IS FOR indoor use only. Do not expose to rain or use in wet or
damp locations.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of an electrical malfunction or short circuit, grounding reduces
the risk of electric shock. The motor of this machine is wired for 120 V single
phase operation and is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and a 3-prong
grounding plug to fit a grounded type receptacle B. Do not remove the 3rd
prong (grounding pin) to make it fit into an old 2-hole wall socket or extension
cord. If an adaptor plug is used C, it must be attached to the metal screw of the
receptacle.
NOTE: The use of an adaptor plug is illegal in some areas, including
Canada. Check your local codes. If you have any doubts or if the supplied
plug does not correspond to your electrical outlet, consult a qualified
electrician before proceeding.
EXTENSION CORDS
If you find it necessary to use an extension cord with your machine, use only
3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plug and a matching 3-pole
receptacle that accepts the tool's plug. Repair or replace a
damaged extension cord or plug immediately.
Make sure the cord rating is suitable for the amperage listed on the motor I.D.
plate. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss
of power and overheating. The accompanying chart shows the correct size
extension cord to be used based on cord length and motor I.D. plate amp
rating.
