15. Do not pick up anything that is burning or smoking (cigarettes, matches,
or hot ashes).
16. Do not use this appliance without a dust bag and/or filters in place.
REPLACEMENT PARTS
When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
MOTOR
Many Porter-Cable products will operate on either D.C. or single phase, 25 to
60 cycle A.C. current, and voltage within plus or minus 5 percent of that
shown on the specification plate on the tool. Several models, however, are
designed for A.C. current only. Refer to the specification plate on your tool for
proper voltage and current rating.
CAUTION: Do not operate your appliance on a current on which the
voltage is not within correct limits. Do not operate appliances rated
A.C. only on D.C. current. To do so may seriously damage the
appliance.
EXTENSION CORD SELECTION
If an extension cord is used, make sure the conductor size is large enough to
prevent excessive voltage drop which will cause loss of power and possible
motor damage. A table of recommended extension cord sizes will be found in
this section. This table is based on limiting line voltage drop to 5 volts (10 volts
for 230 volts) at 150% of rated amperes.
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors it must be marked with the suffix
W-A or W following the cord type designation. For example – SJTW-A to
indicate it is acceptable for outdoor use.
