POWER SOURCE. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY!
POWER SUPPLY
WARNING:
YOUR DRUM SANDER MUST BE CONNECTED TO
A 110V, 15-AMP DEDICATED CIRCUIT BREAKER. FAILURE TO
CONNECT IN THIS WAY CAN RESULT IN INJURY FROM
SHOCK OR FIRE.
GROUNDING
This drum sander 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 drum
sander 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.
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:
TO MAINTAIN PROPER GROUNDING OF YOUR
DRUM SANDER, DO NOT
REMOVE OR ALTER THE
GROUNDING PRONG IN ANY MANNER.
WARNING:
IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED, THIS DRUM
SANDER 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.
110V OPERATION
As received from the factory, your drum sander is wired to run on
110V current. This drum sander is intended for use on a electrical
circuit that has an outlet and a plug which looks like the one
illustrated in Fig.1.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE A TWO-PRONG ADAPTOR 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 table (Fig.2) to determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G-
American Wire Gauge) extension cord required. 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 drum sander motors. Refer to Fig.2 for wire length and
size.
