Electrical Connection Instructions
CAUTION:
This machine will operate only on AC frequency and voltage shown on the motor
nameplate. Make sure you have the correct frequency and voltage before connecting the
power cord to an outlet. The machine has a plug as shown below.
Note: European machines are not equipped with an electrical plug.
This machine must be connected to an electrically ground circuit in order to protect the operator from electric shock.
This machine has an approved power cord with three conductors as well as a plug with three terminals. Connect the
plug into a three holed receptacle. For maximum protection against electric shock, use a circuit that is protected
by a ground fault circuit interrupter.
DANGER:
Electrocution could occur if the machine is exposed to water or rain. Keep the machine
in a dry building.
DANGER:
Electrocution could occur if machine is improperly connected to the electrical system. To
prevent possible electric shock, always use a 3-wire electrical system connected to an
electrical ground. For maximum protection against electrical shock, use a circuit that
is protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter. Consult your electrical contractor.
DANGER:
Electrocution could occur if the ground pin is tampered with in any way. Do not cut,
remove, or break the ground pin. Do not try to fit a three-terminal plug into a receptacle
or connector body other than a three holed receptacle or connector body matching the
machine plug. If the outlet does not fit the plug, consult your electrical contractor.
DANGER:
Electrocution could occur if the machine is used with a damaged plug or power cord. If
the cords or plugs are worn or damaged in any way, have them replaced by an authorized
service person or electrician.
Extension Cords
Use only an approved three-pronged extension cord with two main conductors and one earthing conductor. This
machine's power cord has a wire size of 10 gauge. This machine is equipped with a 100' power cord. When greater
range is needed follow the table below to determine wire guage of additional footage. Refer to the following chart
for extension cord information.
If motor appears to labor or takes a considerably longer time to come up to speed, reduce sanding pressure.
