INSTALLATION
WARNING
Connect the switch to stranded
wire with insulated crimp type
wire terminals.
The ON/OFF switch requires
female quick-disconnect wire
terminals with a 1/4" tab.
All crimps MUST be "pull-
checked" to ensure that wires are securely
crimped. If crimps are not secure they may
disconnect and fall out with moderate tension or
when exposed to normal machine vibration.
WARNING
*
- This switch MUST be installed on
an electrical circuit with a verified
machine ground. In the event of certain
malfunctions or breakdowns the grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by
providing a path of least resistance for
electric current.
