The ground wire is getting current flow from the impact (this is supposed to happen). The reason that warning label is there is because the ground disapates the leakage current from the motor. The GFCI sees this as a shock hazzard, as in the ground has become live. If you use an adapter, and don't ground the ground leg of the impact, you'll probably get a shock off the case of the impact. The GFCI won't work with that impact, it's not a fault with either device, they just don't work together. The same thing can happen if you don't ground the case of a 3 phase motor, especially with a VFD. What you may be able to do to make it work is connect the neutral to the case, and unhook the ground lead inside the impact. This can be VERY DANGEROUS, if you plug it into a mis-wired plug after that, the case will be HOT! Which means if you pick up the impact, and touch a ground, you can be KILLED! I don't know if that would even work for sure, if GFCIs really sense an imbalance of hot and neutral, it might still trip. I thought they just sensed if the ground had current flow. The best solution is to get rid of the GFCI if you want to use that impact.
