PROPER GROUNDING
Grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the
risk of electric shock.
CX502 is for use on a normal 110 volt
circuit. Make sure that the machine is
connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. If an adaptor plug
is used, it must be attached to the metal
screw of the receptacle. To prevent
electrical hazards, have a qualified
electrician ensure that the line is properly
wired.
The sander should be wired with a plug
having 3 prongs to fit a 3 prong grounding
receptacle as shown in figure-1. Do not
remove the grounding prong to fit it into a 2
pronged outlet.

It is strongly recommended not to use
extension cords with your CX502. Always
try to position your machine close to the
power source so that you do not need to
use extension cords.
In case if you really find it necessary to use
an extension cord, make sure the extension
cord does not exceed 50-feet in length and
the cord is 14-gauge to prevent motor
damage.
UNPACKING
To ensure safe transportation this machine
is properly packaged and shipped
completely in a box. When unpacking,
carefully inspect the box and ensure that
nothing has been damaged during transit.
Open the box and check that the machine
and the parts are in good condition.
WARNING
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt as to
whether the outlet is properly grounded.
