D. Electrical Supply
The HHD323 handheld drill is furnished with a 115 volt, single phase motor.
This motor operates within a power range of 110 to 120 volts. Serious damage
can result if the supply line voltage does not fall within this range.
The following wire sizes are recommended when using an extension cord:
Wire Gauge (AWG)
Length Of Wire
Number 14
25 Feet
Number 12
50 Feet
Number 10
75 Feet
Number 08
100 Feet
For Best performance use 50 feet of 10 gauge extension cord. All extension
cords must be one piece, free of any damage (frays, cracks, breaks, burn
marks, exposed wires, and loose ends).
F. Generator:
If a generator must be used, it must be of 4.1kW (4,100 W) or larger. The
generator must have a 15A circuit or greater and capable of providing a
minimum of 4.1kW at the required voltage. Under size generators will cause
motor damage and is not covered under warranty.
G. Grounding Instructions:
Grounding protects the operator from electric shock. At the time of delivery
of the motor is equipped with an approved three-conductor cord and three-
prong grounding type plug. The green (green/yellow in CEE-Versions)
conductor in the cord is the grounding wire.
NOTE: Never
connect the green
(green/yellow) ground conductor (wire) to a live terminal. In case of doubt
concerning the ground of the receptacle, call a qualified electrician and have it
checked for proper ground.
z
Before connecting the drill to the power source, make sure that the
voltage and cycles shown on the name plate of the motor are the same
as the available electrical power supplied.
z
Always properly ground the core drill before attempting to start the
motor. The presence of water during the drilling operation requires that
the drill always be properly grounded.

NEVER
connect the green (ground) wire to a live terminal!
