The no-load speed of this tool is approximately 2,900 rpm. This speed is not constant and decreases under a load or with lower voltage. For voltage, the wiring in a shop is as important as the horsepower rating of the motor. A line intended only for lights cannot properly carry a power tool motor. Wire that is heavy enough for a short distance will be too light for a greater distance. A line that can support one power tool may not be able to support two or three tools. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS See Figure 1. This product must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having 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 t the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualied electrician. WARNING Improper installation of the grounding plug could result in a risk of electric shock. When repair or replacement of the cord is required, do not connect the grounding wire to the at blade terminals. The wire with green-colored insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the grounding wire. Check with a qualied electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood or if in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately. If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced only by the manufacturer or by an authorized service center to avoid risk. Only connect the product to an outlet having the same conguration as the plug. Do not use an adapter with this product. For greater safety and reliability, all repairs should be performed by an Authorised Ryobi Service Centre.
