In the event of certain types of malfunctions or
breakdowns, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current—in order to reduce
the risk of electric shock.
This machine is equipped
with a power cord that has an equipment-
grounding wire and a grounding plug (similar to
the figure below). The plug must only be inserted
into a matching receptacle (outlet) that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The
wire with green insulation (with or without
yellow stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire.
If repair or replacement of the power cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-
grounding wire to a live (current carrying)
terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service
personnel if you do not understand these
grounding requirements, or if you are in doubt
about whether the tool is properly grounded. If
you ever notice that a cord or plug is damaged or
worn, disconnect it from power, and immediately
replace it with a new one.

We do not recommend using an extension cord
with this machine. If you must use an extension
cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only
on a temporary basis.
Extension cords cause voltage drop, which may
damage electrical components and shorten motor
life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord
size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller
(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine
must contain a ground wire, match the required
plug and receptacle, and meet the following
requirements:
