Extension Cords; Unpacking And Cleaning - Delta 40-530 Instruction Manual

EXTENSION CORDS

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 a
3-pole receptacle which will accept the tool's plug.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current of the saw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage,
resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. 3,
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.
Your new scroll saw is shipped complete in one carton. Carefully unpack the saw and all loose items from the shipping
container. Figure 4 illustrates the scroll saw (A) and all loose items supplied with your machine. After assembly remove
the protective coating from the saw table surface. 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, it is good practice to cover
the table surface with a good quality paste wax. Buff out the wax thoroughly to prevent it from rubbing into your
workpiece.
