USING THE GARAGE ORGANIZER
PLUGGING IN THE POWER CORD
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunc-
tion or break down, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of
electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illus-
trated in drawing 1 below.
A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illus-
trated in drawing 2 may be used to connect the
grounding plug to a 2-pole receptacle if a properly
grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet (see drawing 1) can be
installed by a qualified electrician.
The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending
from the adapter (see drawing 2) must be connected
to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded
outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it
must be held in place by a metal screw. Some 2-pole
receptacle outlet box covers are not grounded.
Contact a qualified electrician to determine if the
outlet box cover is grounded before using an
adapter.
TESTING THE GFCI OUTLET
The work bench
has a Ground
Fault Circuit
Interrupter
(GFCI) outlet on
the backsplash.
The GFCI outlet
has a test but-
ton and a reset
button. To test
the GFCI outlet,
plug a radio into
the outlet and
push the test
button. The radio should shut off. Press the reset but-
ton. The radio should turn on again. If the radio does
not shut off when the test button is pressed, the GFCI
is damaged. Do not use the outlets on the work bench
until the GFCI has been repaired or replaced by a
qualified electrician.
LEVELING THE WORK BENCH
If the work
bench is not
level when it is
placed in the
desired location,
turn one or
more of the
adjustable feet
until the work
bench is level.
Make sure the
work bench is
resting on all
four adjustable
feet.
DANGER: Improper connection
of the equipment-grounding conductor can
result in an increased risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service-
man if you are in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the product—if it will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
