ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
WARNING!
ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN
SERIOUS INJURY! ALL ADJUSTMENTS OR REPAIRS MUST BE DONE WITH THE MACHINE DISCONNECTED FROM THE
POWER SOURCE. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY!
POWER SUPPLY
WARNING:
YOUR JOINTER/PLANER MUST BE CONNECTED TO A
220V, 15 AMP. BRANCH CIRCUIT AND USE A 15 AMP. TIME DELAY
FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER. FAILURE TO CONNECT IN THIS WAY
CAN RESULT IN INJURY FROM SHOCK OR FIRE.
Your Jointer/Planer must be properly grounded. Not all outlets are
properly grounded. If you are not sure if your outlet is properly
grounded, have it checked by a qualified electrician.
WARNING:
IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED, THIS JOINTER/
PLANER CAN CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK, PARTICULARLY WHEN
USED IN DAMP LOCATIONS. TO AVOID SHOCK OR FIRE, IF THE
POWER CORD IS WORN OR DAMAGED IN ANY WAY, HAVE IT
REPLACED IMMEDIATELY.
GROUNDING
This Jointer/Planer must be grounded. If it should malfunction or
breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric
current, to reduce the risk of electric shock. This Jointer/Planer is
equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet
that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
WARNING:
TO MAINTAIN PROPER GROUNDING OF YOUR
JOINTER/PLANER, DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER THE GROUNDING
PRONG IN ANY MANNER.
220V OPERATION
As received from the factory, your Jointer/Planer is ready to operate on
220V circuit. This Jointer/Planer is intended for use on a circuit that has
an outlet and a plug which looks like the one illustrated in Fig.1.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE A TWO-PRONG ADAPTER FOR THEY ARE
NOT IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES AND ORDINANCES.
NEVER USE IN CANADA.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power. Use the
following table to determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G-American
Wire Gauge) extension cord. Use only 3-wire extension cords which
have 3-prong grounding type plugs and 3-hole receptacles which accept
the tool’s plug.
For circuits that are further away from the electrical circuit box, the wire
size must be increased proportionately in order to deliver ample voltage
to the motor. Refer to Fig.2 for wire length and size.
