POWER
CONNECTIONS
A separate electrical circuit should be used for your machines. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should be
protected with a 20 Amp time lag fuse. If an extension cord is used, use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong
grounding type plugs and matching receptacle which will accept the machine's plug. Before connecting the machine to the
power line, make sure the switch (s) is in the "OFF" position and be sure that the electric current is of the same characteristics
as indicated on the machine. All line connections should make good contact. Running on low voltage will damage the
machine.
DO NOT EXPOSE THE MACHINE TO RAIN OR OPERATE THE MACHINE IN DAMP LOCATIONS.
MOTOR
SPECIFICATIONS
Your machine is wired for 120 volt, 60 HZ alternating current. Before connecting
the machine to the power source,
make sure the switch is in the "OFF" position.
DOUBLE
INSULATED
TOOLS
Double insulated tools are constructed
throughout
with two separate layers of electrical
insulation or one double
thickness
of insulation between you and the tool's electrical system. Tools built with this insulation system are not
intended to be grounded. As a result, your tool is equipped with a two prong plug which permits you to use extension
cords without concern for maintaining a ground connection.
NOTE= Double insulation does not take the place of normal safety precautions when operating this tool. The insulation
system is for added protection against injury resulting from possible electrical insulation failure within the tool.

CORDS.
Polarized plugs (one blade is wider than the other) are used on equipment
to reduce risk of electric shock. When
provided, this plug will fit in the polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
EXTENSION
CORDS
_Make
sure your extension cord is in good
condition.
When using an extension
cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your product
will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage
resulting
in loss of power
and overheating.
The
table in Fig. D-1 shows the correct size to use
depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the
gage number, the heavier the cord.
