ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS

INJURY! ALL ADJUSTMENTS OR REPAIRS MUST BE DONE WITH THE BAND SAW DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER SOURCE.

FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY!

POWER SUPPLY

WARNING: YOUR BANDSAW IS WIRED AT THE FACTORY FOR 110-120V

OPERATION, IT MUST BE CONNECTED TO A 110-120V/15-AMP. TIME DELAY

FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER. FAILURE TO CONNECT IN THIS WAY CAN

RESULT IN INJURY FROM SHOCK OR FIRE. This bandsaw is intended for use on

a electrical circuit that has an outlet and a plug which looks like the one illustrated

in Fig.1.

WARNING: DO NOT USE A TWO-PRONG ADAPTOR FOR THEY ARE NOT IN

ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES AND ORDINANCES. NEVER USE IN

CANADA.

GROUNDING

This bandsaw must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current, to

reduce the risk of electric shock. This bandsaw is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug

must be plugged into an appropriate 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 the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Not all outlets are properly

grounded. If you are not sure if your outlet is properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified electrician.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer

surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding condustor. If repair or replacement of the power cord or plug is

necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether

the tool is properly grounded. Use only 3 wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3 pole receptacles that accept the tool's

plug. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

WARNING: IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED, THIS BAND SAW CAN CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK,

PARTICULARLY WHEN USED IN DAMP LOCATIONS. TO AVOID SHOCK OR FIRE, IF THE POWER

CORD IS WORN OR DAMAGED IN ANY WAY, HAVE IT REPLACED IMMEDIATELY.

USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD

Make sure the extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one

heavy enough to carry the current your tool will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line

voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. See Fig.2 for table showing correct size to use

depending on the cord lenght and the nameplate amperage rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier

gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. Always use U.L. and CSA listed extension

cords.

WARNING: Replace damaged cords immediately. Use of damaged cords can shock, burn or

electrocute.

ON/OFF SWITCH WITH REMOVABLE SAFETY KEY

The On/Off switch (A) Fig.3 comes with a removable safety key (B). When the safety key is removed

(when switch is in Off position only) from the switch and placed in a safe location, unauthorized persons

or children can't turn the switch to the On position, restricting use. It is recommended to always remove

the safety key from the switch whenever the bandsaw is not in use.
