MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS AND ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
MOTOR
The belt and disc sander is assembled with motor and
wiring insta!led as an integral part of the tool..
The 120 Volt AC permanent split capacitor motor' has the
following specifications:
Max..Developed Horsepower ...................... 1/2
Voltage ................................................. 120
Amperes .............................................. 4
Hertz .............................................. 60
Phase ........................................... Single
RPM .......................................... 3450
Rotation (viewed from left s ide) ..........Clockwise
POWER SOURCE
CAUTION: Do not connect the belt and disc sander
to the power source until all assembly
steps have been completedo
1. The motor is designed for operation on the voltage
and frequency specified on motor nameptatev
2_ Normal loads will be handled safely on voltages not
more than 10% above or below nameplate voltage.
3. Running the unit on voltages which are not within
range may cause overheating and motor- burn-ouL
4. Heavy loads require that voltage at motor terminals
be not less than voltage specified on nameplate.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This tool is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and
ground type plug which has a grounding prong ap-
proved by Underwriters Laboratories and the Canadian
Standards Association.
Do not remove or' alter' the grounding prong in any
manner° In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electri-
cal current to reduce the risk of electrical shock
The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances,.
Do not modify the plug provided° If it will not fit In the
outlet, have the proper' outlet installed by a qualified
electrictan_ improper connection of equipment-ground-
ing conductor can result in a rlsk of electrical shock.
The conductor with insulation having an outer surface
which is green ts the equipment grounding conductor.
If repair or replacement of the electrical cord or plug is
necessary, make sure the equipment grounding con-
ductor is not connected to a line terminal.
WARNING: CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED ELECTRI-
CIAN OR SERVICE PERSONNEL IF THE
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS ARE NOT
UNDERSTOOD OR IF IN DOUBT AS TO
WHETHER TOOL IS PROPERLY
GROUNDED,
PROPERLY
GROUNDED
OUTLET "_
"" PRONG "_
This toot is intended for' use on a circuit having a nominal
rating tess than I50 volts which has an outlet that looks
tike the one illustrated above.
A temporary adapter', which looks like outlet illustrated
below, may be used to connect this plug to a two-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,
The green colored grounding lug extending from the
adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such
as a properly grounded outlet box.
Make sure adapter ts
connected to a known
grounded receptacle
ADAPTER
3-PRONG PLUG_
NOTE: The adapter illustrated is for use onIy if you
already have a properly grounded 2-prong
receptacle. Adapter ts not allowed in Canada by
the Canadian Electrical Code.
EXTENSION CORDS
1_ The use of any extension cord wilt cause some drop
in the voltage and loss of power.
2. Wires of extension cord must be sufficient in size to
carry current and maintain adequate voltage
3, Use the table below to determine the minimum wire
size (A.W.G) extension cord°
4. Use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-
prong grounding type plugs and 3-pole receptacles
which accept the tool plug.
5. If power cord is worn, cut or damaged in any way,
have it replaced immediately.
Extension cord length Wire Size A.W.Go
Upto 100ft ......................................... 16
NOTE: Using extension cords over' 100 ft., long isnot
recommended°
WARNING: DO NOT PERMIT FINGERS TO TOUCH
THE TERMINALS OF PLUGS WHEN IN-
STALLING OR REMOVING THE PLUG
TO OR FROM OUTLET.
