charge for this service. A qualified electrician
can also be consulted. If a 115 VAC power
outlet is selected, it is recommended that a
properly tested, externally mounted, ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI) be utilized at all times
as an additional safety precaution. Ground fault
circuit interrupters are not available for operation
on 230 VAC. FIGURE 34.

6) Couple the NEMA 6-20R receptacle and the
NEMA 6-20P plug together.
7) Grasp the operator handle with firm gripping.
When starting the electric motor, apply a down
force directly to the operator handle to help
reduce the amount of machine weight against
the work surface. Turn the ON/OFF switch to the
ON position. Reduce the amount of applied
down force on the operator handle as the
electric motor attains its operational speed.
When operating on 115 VAC, the electric motor
will require additional starting time to help
compensate for the additional starting amperage
requirement. This time is usually within two
seconds of activating the ON/OFF switch.
