ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Power Source
A seperate electrical circuit should be used for your tool. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should be
protected with a 20 amp time lag fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the “OFF”
position and be sure the electric current is of the same characteristics as indicated on the tool. All line connections should
make good contact. Running on low voltage will damage the motor.
WARNING: DO NOT EXPOSE THE TOOL TO RAIN OR OPERATE IN DAMP LOCATIONS.
Grounding Instructions
WARNING: THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR
FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.
All grounded, cord-connected tools:
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for 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 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 personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in
doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Figure 18
Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on a
supply circuit having a nominal rating less than 150 volts
will have a grounding plug similar to illustration.
Figure 19
Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on a
supply circuit having a nominal rating between 150-250 volts
will have a grounding plug similar to illustration. Make sure
the tool is connected to an outlet having the same
configurations as the plug. No adapter is
available or should be used with this tool. If the tool must
be reconnected for use on a different type of electric circuit,
the change should be made by qualified servicing
personnel.
WARNING: IN ALL CASES, MAKE SURE THE RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED.
