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 MACHINE DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER SOURCE.
FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY!
POWER SUPPLY
WARNING!: YOUR MEAT BANDSAW MUST BE CONNECTED TO A 120V,
15-AMP, BRANCH CIRCUIT. FAILURE TO CONNECT IN THIS WAY CAN RESULT
IN INJURY FROM SHOCK OR FIRE.
GROUNDING
This Meat Bandsaw must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current, reducing the risk
of electric shock. This Meat 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. Not all outlets are properly grounded. If you are not
sure if your outlet is properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified electrician.
WARNING!: IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED, THIS TILE 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.
WARNING!: TO MAINTAIN PROPER GROUNDING OF YOUR MEAT BANDSAW,
DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER THE GROUNDING PRONG IN ANY MANNER.
120V OPERATION
As received from the factory, your Meat Bandsaw is ready to run for 120V operation. This Meat Bandsaw is intended for use on a 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.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power. Use the chart Fig.2 to determine the
minimum wire size (A.W.G-American Wire Gauge) extension cord needed. Use only 3-wire extension
cords which have 3-prong grounding type plugs and 3-hole receptacles which accept the tool's plug.
For circuits that are further away from the electrical circuit box, the wire size must be increased
proportionately in order to deliver ample voltage to the Meat Bandsaw motor. Refer to Fig. 2 for
extension cord length and size (gauge).
WIRING OF MOTOR AND POWER CORD TO SWITCH
Fig.3 shows the correct wiring of the motor cord and the
power cord to the back of the switch.
