Grounding Instructions
In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding 
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to 
reduce the risk of electric shock. The area light must be 
connected to a cord having an equipment-grounding 
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be 
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly 
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes 
andordinances.
DANGER: Improper connection of the equipment 
grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric 
shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer 
surface that is green with or without yellow stripes 
is the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or 
replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not 
connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a 
live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or 
serviceman if the grounding instructions are not 
completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether 
the area light is properly grounded. Do not modify the 
plug connected to the area light—if it will not fit the 
outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified 
electrician.
For grounded, cord-connected area 
lights rated less than 15A and intended 
for use on a nominal 120V supply circuit
The area light is for use on a nominal 120V circuit, and 
should be connected to a grounding plug that looks like 
the plug illustrated in sketch a. A temporary adaptor, which 
looks like the adaptor illustrated in sketch b, may be used 
to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in 
sketch b if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The 
temporary adaptor should be used only until a properly 
grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. 
The green colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending 
from the adaptor must be connected to a permanent 
ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. 
Whenever the adaptor is used, it must be held in place by 
the metal screw.

Use of Extension Cords with Area light
Only use a grounded extension cord that is rated at least 
12amps and has a third-wire ground.
When a long extension cord is used to connect a area light 
or tool, a voltage drop occurs. The longer the cord, the 
greater the voltage drop. This results in less voltage being 
supplied to the area light or tool and increases the amount 
of current (amp) draw or reduces performance. A heavier 
cord with a larger wire size will reduce the voltage drop. Be 
sure to choose a cord that will supply enough voltage to 
operate your tool and/or area light. 
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Keep extension cord 
connection dry and off the ground.
WARNING: Keep electrical cords in good condition. 
Do not use worn, bare, or frayed cords because they 
can cause electrical shock.
WARNING: Operating equipment at low voltage 
can cause it to overheat. Using an excessively long 
extension cord can cause the cord to overheat.
For more information about extension cord size 
requirements, refer to the Minimum Gauge for Cord Sets 
chart found under Important Safety Instructions for the 
Area Light/Charger.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
ʵ This device may not cause harmful interference, and
ʵ This device must accept any interference 
received, including interference that may cause 
undesiredoperation.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply 
with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 
15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide 
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a 
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and 
can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and 
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful 
interference to radio communications. However, there is no 
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular 
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference 
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by 
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged 
to try to correct the interference by one or more of the 
followingmeasures:
ʵ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
ʵ Increase the separation between the equipment and 
adaptor.
ʵ Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit 
different from that to which the adaptor is connected.
ʵ Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV 
technician for help.
