INSPECTION
Carefully unpack and inspect your machine for shipping damage. Each unit is tested and thoroughly
inspected before shipment, and any damage is the responsibility of the delivery carrier who should
be notified immediately.
ELECTRICAL - 115 Volt
This machine is designed to operate on a standard 15 amp. 115 volt, 60 hz, AC circuit. V oltages
below 105 volts AC or above 125 volts AC could cause serious damage to the motor.
ELECTRICAL - 240 Volt
This machine is designed to operate on a standard 10 amp. fused 230 volt, 50 hz, AC circuit.
WARNING
Electric motors can cause explosions when operated near explosive materials or vapors. Do not
operate this machine near flammable materials such as solvents, thinners, fuels, grain dust, etc.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is
equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug
must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to
whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance — if
it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in Sketch A below. Make sure that the appliance is connected to an outlet having
the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this appliance.
For equipment rated 150-250 volts: If the machine is provided with an attachment plug as shown
in Sketc B, it is intended for use on a 240 volt (nominal) circuit. No adapter is available for this
plug.
