WARNING

Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities con tains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints.

• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products.

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on

how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well venti lated area, and work with approved safety equip ment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

INTRODUCTION

ELECTRICAL

110V Operation

The SHOP FOX® Model D3589 is prewired for 110 volt operation, and comes with an AC/DC power adapter.

AC/DC power adapters do not need to be con nected to a grounded circuit. However, there are a number of safety issues that all users should be aware of, especially when using an extension cord.

• DO NOT use the AC/DC power adapter in damp or wet conditions, as the risk of elec tric shock is greatly increased.

• Never place the AC/DC power adapter on or near flammable items or substances, or items that could be damaged by excessive heat.

If you need to modify a power supply circuit, and you are unsure about the wiring codes in your area, consult a qualified electrician to reduce the risk of electrocution or fire.

Extension Cords

When it is necessary to use an extension cord, use the following guidelines:

• Use cords rated for standard service.

• Use cords with 14 gauge wire or bigger.

• Do not use cords in need of repair.

• If working outside, always situate the AC/ DC power adapter in a cool, dry, shaded area whenever possible. The chance of the AC/DC power adapter overheating is greatly increased if placed in direct sunlight.
