ALL ADJUSTMENTS OR REPAIRS MUST BE DONE WITH THE DUST COLLECTOR DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER
SOURCE. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY!
GENERAL INFORMATION- 120V single phase operation
This dust collector comes with a 120V/240V single phase motor and is
prewired for 120V operation.
WARNING:
YOUR DUST COLLECTOR MUST BE CONNECTED TO A
120V, 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.
This dust collector is intended for use on an electrical circuit that has an
outlet and a plug which looks like the one illustrated in Fig.1A.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE A TWO-PRONG ADAPTOR FOR THEY ARE
NOT IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES AND ORDINANCES.
NEVER USE IN CANADA.
240V OPERATION
If 220V-240V, single phase operation is desired, the following instructions
must be followed:
1. Disconnect the machine from its power source.
2. The dust collector comes with four motor leads that are connected for
120V operation as shown in Fig.1C. Reconnect these four motor leads
for 240V operation, as shown in Fig.1D.
3. The 120V plug supplied with the dust collector must be replaced with a
CSA listed plug suitable for 220V operation. This plug is illustrated in
Fig.1B. Contact your authorized service center or qualified electrician to
install the plug and to change the connections from 120V to 240V. The
dust collector must comply with all local and national codes after the
240V plug is installed.
4. A dust collector with a 240V plug should only be connected to an outlet
having the same configuration as illustrated by the grounded outlet box
in Fig.1B. No adaptor is available or should be used for 240V operation.
GROUNDING
Your dust collector 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. If it should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current, to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This dust collector 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.
