The green-colored rigid ear, lug, etc., extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box.

If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury. 1. Always use proper guard with grinding wheel. A guard protects operator from broken wheel fragments. 5. Always use safety glasses or goggles. Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT safety glasses. 2. Accessories must be rated for at least the speed recommended on the tool warning label. Wheels and other accessories running over rated speed can fly apart and cause injury. 3. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. 4. When using depressed center grinding wheels, be sure to use only fiberglassreinforced wheels. 6. Check the wheel carefully for cracks or damage before operation. Replace cracked or damaged wheel immediately. Run the tool (with guard) at no load for about a minute, holding tool away from others. If wheel is flawed, it will likely separate during this test. 7. Use only flanges specified for this tool. 8. Be careful not to damage the spindle, the flange (especially the installing surface) or the lock nut. Damage to these parts could result in wheel breakage. 5
