ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

WARNING
All electrical connections must be performed by a qualified
electrician. Make sure tool is off and disconnected from power
source while motor is mounted, connected, reconnected or
anytime wiring is inspected. Motor and wires are installed as
shown in wiring schematic (See Figure 13). Motor is assembled
with approved, 3-conductor cord to be used at 120 volts.
The power lines are inserted directly into the switch. The green
ground line must remain securely fastened to the frame to
properly protect against electrical shock. The power supply to
the motor is controlled by a single pole locking rocker switch.
Remove and store Safety Key to prevent unauthorized use.
TO CONVERT TO 240V POWER SUPPLY
To convert the Dust Collector to 240V the switch box must be
rewired and a new plug attached. A qualified electrician MUST
inspect the switch box and new plug before the Dust Collector
is connected to the power source.
The 240V power supply circuit must have a verified ground and
meet these requirements:
Circuit Type . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 220V/240V, 60 Hz, Single Phase
Current Size . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 Amps
Plug Receptacle . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . NEMA 6-15
TO CONVERT
1. Make sure the tool is unplugged.
2. Open the switch box cover.
3. Follow the 240V wiring diagram on the inside of the switch
box cover.
NOTE: The 240V wiring diagram is shown in Figure 15. Call the
