Extension Cords; Functional Description; Unpacking And Cleaning - Delta 31-396 Instruction Manual

Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire
extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching receptacle which will accept the machine's
plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. D, shows the correct
gauge to use depending on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number,
the heavier the cord.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

FOREWORD
Delta Model 31-396 is an Oscillating Edge Sander. The model 31-396 is powered by a 3 H.P., 220 volt single phase motor.
The oscillating edge belt can be positioned anywhere from 0 degrees to the table to 90 degrees to the table. The model

Carefully unpack the machine and all loose items from the shipping container(s). Remove the protective coating from
all unpainted surfaces. This coating may be removed with a soft cloth moistened with kerosene (do not use acetone,
gasoline or lacquer thinner for this purpose). After cleaning, cover the unpainted surfaces with a good quality household
floor paste wax.
