lug and is attached tO the tool housing at one end and to the
ground prong in the attachment plug at the other end.
This plug requires a mating 3-conductor grounded type
outlet as shown.
If the outlet you are planning to use for this
Sander/Grinder is of the two prong type DO NOT
REMOVE OR ALTER THE GROUNDING PRONG iN
ANY MANNER. Use an adapter as shown and always
connect the grounding lug to a known ground.
It is recommended that you have aqualified electrician
