Delta 50-880 Instruction Manual page 4

1. All grounded, cord-connected tools:
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current to
reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with
an electric cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into a matching 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.
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 conductor. If repair or replacement of the
electric 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
t h e g ro u n d i n g i n s t r u c t i o n s a re n o t c o m p l e t e l y
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is
properly grounded.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding type plugs and matching 3-conductor
receptacles that accept the tool's plug, as shown in Fig. A.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

OPERATION
The motor supplied with your down draft table is a dual
voltage 120/240 volt motor. If it is desired to operate your
down draft table at 240 volts, single phase, contact your
local Authorized Delta Service Center or a qualified
electrician. Your Authorized Delta Service Center or a
qualified electrician can provide the proper procedures
to rewire your down draft table motor for 240 volt
operation and wiring a 240 volt attachment plug to the
power supply cord. The down draft table with a 240 volt
plug should only be connected to an outlet having the
same configuration as the plug illustrated in Fig. C. No
adapter is available or should be used with the 240-volt
plug. AS A PRECAUTION IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN
THE RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY
GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE, HAVE A QUALIFIED
ELECTRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.

2. Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on
a supply circuit having a nominal rating less than 150
volts:
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet
that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. A. The tool has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig. A.
A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter
illustrated in Fig. B, may be used to connect this plug to a
matching 2-conductor receptacle as shown in Fig. B if a
properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary
adapter should be used only until a properly grounded
outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The
green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from
the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground
such as a properly grounded outlet box. Whenever the
adapter is used, it must be held in place with a metal
screw.
NOTE: In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not
permitted by the Canadian Electric Code.
WARNING: IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE
RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY
