ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Before connecting the machine to the power source, verify that the voltage of your power supply corresponds
with the voltage specified on the motor I.D. nameplate.
A power source with greater voltage than needed can
result in serious injury to the user as well as damage to
the machine. If in doubt, contact a qualified electrician
before connecting to the power source.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of an electrical malfunction or short circuit, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock to. This motor of this machine is wired
for 110V single phase operation and is equipped with a 3-conductor
cord and a 3-prong grounded plug to fit a grounded type socket. Do
not remove the the 3rd prong (grounding pin) to make it fit into an old
2-hole wall socket.If an adaptor plug is used it must be attached to the
metal screw of the socket. The wall socket must be properly installed
and grounded. Note: The use of an adaptor plug is illegal in some
areas. Check you local codes.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED.
If it will not fit your receptacle, have the proper receptacle installed
by a qualified electrician.
CHECK with a qualified electrician or service person if you do not
completely understand these grounding instructions, or if you are not
sure the tool is properly grounded.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor
with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding
conductor to a live terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
In all cases, make certain the receptacle is properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a qualified electrician check the receptacle.
This tool is for indoor use only. Do not expose to
rain or use in damp locations.
A
B
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in A. The tool has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in A on the sketch above. A temporary adapter, which looks like
the adapter illustrated in B, may be used to connect this 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 can be installed by
a qualified electrician. This adapter is not permitted in Canada. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like,
extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box.
This tool must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electrical shock.
EXTENSION CORDS:
RECEPTACLES THAT ACCEPT THE TOOL’S PLUG. REPAIR OR REPLACE DAMAGED OR WORN CORD IMMEDIATELY.
If you find it necessary to use an extension cord with your machine make sure the cord rating is suitable for the
amperage listed on the motor I.D. plate. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. The accompanying chart shows the correct size extension cord to be used based on cord
length and motor I.D. plate amp rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the number the
heavier the gauge.
