6.4 Installation
This machine is designed to
operate while it is setting on the floor. Only use
this machine with it setting on a level, stable
floor surface. Never place this machine on a
bench, chair, table, cart, or any other elevated
surface, or where there is a risk of tipping over.
Do not hang this machine from the ceiling or any
other structure.
The AFS-850 has a 15-foot power cord, a wide
base, and a 360° circular handle. Using the handle,
you can slide or move this machine to an area
closest to your dust source.
This unit will work best if located away from corners
and heating/cooling vents.
Installation is quick and easy. Just plug the power
cord into an electrical outlet and the machine is
ready to power on and use.
Follow these power cord safety requirements:
•
Route the power cord so that it will not
become entangled in the machine in any
way.
•
Route the cord to the power supply in a way
that does not create a trip hazard.
•
Do not route cord under carpeting or cover
the cord with throw rugs, runners, or similar
coverings.
•
Do not route cord under furniture or
appliances.
7.0 Electrical Connections
Electrical connections should
be made by a qualified electrician in compliance
with all relevant codes. Failure to comply may
cause serious injury.
The AFS-850 Air Filtration System is prewired for
single phase, 120V power. It is provided with a plug
designed for use on a circuit with a grounded outlet
that looks like the one pictured in Figure 7-1.
It is recommended that the AFS-850 be connected
to a 15-amp circuit with a circuit breaker or fuse. If
fuses are used, they should be time-delay fuse
marked “D”.
Local codes take precedence over
recommendations.
7.1 GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
1. All Grounded, Cord-connected Tools:
This machine must be grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with
an electric cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into a matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the
outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an outer surface
that is green with or without yellow stripes is the
equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is
necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding
conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified
electrician or service person if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the tool is properly
grounded. Failure to comply may cause serious
or fatal injury.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept
the tool's plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord
immediately.
2. Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use
on a supply circuit having a nominal rating
less than
150
volts:
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Figure 7-
1.
