Perform this sharpening process on both cutting ends of the blade. After sharpening, balance the blade by

removing additional material.

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION

Grounding instructions

IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN, grounding provides the path of least

resistance for electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord

that has an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug MUST be plugged into a

matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local codes and ordinances.

DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a

licensed electrician.

IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment grounding conductor can result in electric shock. The

conductor with the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment grounding conductor. If

repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, DO NOT connect the equipment grounding

conductor to a live terminal.

CHECK with a licensed electrician or service personnel if you do not completely understand the grounding

instructions or whether the tool is properly grounded.

USE ONLY THREE-WIRE EXTENSION CORDS that have three-pronged plugs and outlets that accept the

tool's plug as shown in Fig. A. Repair or replace a damaged or

worn cord immediately.

CAUTION: In all cases, make certain the outlet in question is

properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a licensed electrician

check the outlet.

WARNING: This tool is for indoor use only. Do not expose to rain or use in damp locations.

Guidelines for using extension cords

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. The table below shows the correct size to be used according to

cord length and nameplate ampere rating. When in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge

number, the heavier the cord.
