and tool bits sharp.
21. EACH AND EVERY TIME, CHECK FOR DAM
AGED PARTS PRIOR TO USING THE TOOL.
Carefully check all guards to see that they operate
properly, are not damaged, and perform their
intended functions. Check for alignment, binding or
breaking of moving parts. A guard or other part that
is damaged should be immediately repaired or
replaced.
22. CHILDPROOF THE WORKSHOP AREA by remov
ing switch keys, unplugging tools from the electrical
receptacles, and using padlocks.
23. DO NOT OPERATE TOOL IF UNDER THE INFLU
ENCE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL.
24. SECURE ALL WORK. When it is possible, use
clamps or jigs to secure the work-piece. This is
safer than attempting to hold the work-piece with
your hands.
25. STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING,
AND USE COMMON SENSE WHEN OPERATING
A POWER TOOL. DO NOT USE A TOOL WHILE
TIRED OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS,
ALCOHOL, OR MEDICATION. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may result
in serious personal injury.
26. ALWAYS WEAR A DUST MASK TO PREVENT
INHALING DANGEROUS DUST OR AIRBORNE
PARTICLES, including wood dust, crystalline silica
dust and asbestos dust. Direct particles away
from face and body. Always operate tool in well
ventilated area and provide for proper dust removal.
Use dust collection system whenever possible.
Exposure to the dust may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury, including
silicosis (a serious lung disease), cancer, and
death. Avoid breating the dust, and avoid prolonged
contact with dust. Allowing dust to get into your
mouth or eyes, or lay on your skin may promote
absorption of harmful material. Always use properly
fitting NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure, and wash
exposed areas with soap and water.
The smaller the gauge number, the larger diameter of
the extension cord. If in doubt of the proper size of an
extension cord, use a shorter and thicker cord. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in a loss of power and overheating. USE
ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS A
3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE
RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL'S PLUG.
GUIDELINES FOR
EXTENSION CORDS
If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure
it is marked with the suffix "W-A" ("W" in Canada) to
indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.
Be sure your extension cord is properly sized, and
in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged
extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person
before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects,
excessive heat, and damp or wet areas.

27. USE A PROPER EXTENSION CORD IN GOOD
CONDITION. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current
your product will draw. Please see minimum recom
mended gauge for extension cords (AWG) table for
correct sizing of an extension cord. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge.
Awarning
THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO
PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAK
DOWN, grounding provides the path of least resistance
for electric current and reduces the risk of electric
shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord that
has an equipment-grounding conductor and a ground
ing plug. The plug MUST be plugged into a matching
electrical receptacle that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with ALL local codes and
ordinances.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not
fit the electrical receptacle, have the proper electrical
receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.
IMPROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTION of the equip
ment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric
shock. The conductor with the green insulation (with or
without yellow stripes) is the equipment-grounding
conductor. DO NOT connect the equipment-grounding
conductor to a live terminal if repair or replacement of
the electric cord or plug is necessary.
CHECK with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if you do not completely understand the grounding
instructions, or if you are not sure the tool is properly
grounded.
The motor supplied with your Dust Collector is a dual
voltage 120/240 volt, single-phase motor. It is shipped
wired for 120-volt application. Never connect the green
wire to a live terminal. See OPERATING DUST
COLLECTOR section for directions on changing motor
voltage.
USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS
A 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE
RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL'S PLUG.
REPLACE A DAMAGED OR WORN CORD IMMEDI
ATELY.
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
electrical receptacle as shown in FIGURE 1. FIGURE 1
shows a 3-wire electrical plug and electrical receptacle
that has a grounding conductor. If a properly grounded
electrical receptacle is not available, an adapter as
shown in FIGURE 2 can be used to temporarily connect
this plug to a 2-contact ungrounded receptacle. The
adapter has a rigid lug extending from it that MUST be
connected to a permanent earth ground, such as a
properly grounded receptacle box. THIS ADAPTER IS
PROHIBITED IN CANADA.
A tool with a 240-volt plug should only be connected to
an outlet having the same configuration as the plug
shown in FIGURE 3. No adapter is available or should
be used with the 240-volt plug.
CAUTION: In all cases, make certain the electrical
receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you are
not sure have a certified electrician check the electrical
receptacle.
Awarning
This Dust Collector is for indoor use only. Do not
expose to rain or use in damp locations.
