Allowing
dust to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may
promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
WARNING:
Use of this tool can generate and/
or disperse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use
NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles
away from face and body.
WARNING: Always wear proper personal hearing
protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6 (S3.19)
during use.
Under some conditions and duration
of use, noise from this product may contribute to
hearing loss.
Power Connections
A separate electrical circuit should be used for your
machines. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire
and should be protected with a 20 Amp time lag fuse.
nOTE:
Time delay fuses should be marked “D” in Canada
and “T” in the US. If an extension cord is used, use only
3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong grounding
type plugs and matching receptacle which will accept the
machine’s plug. Before connecting the machine to the
power line, make sure the switch (or switches) is in the
"OFF" position and be sure that the electric current is of the
same characteristics as indicated on the machine. All line
connections should make good contact. Running on low
voltage will damage the machine.
DANGER:
Do not expose the machine to rain or
operate the machine in damp locations.
MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS
Your machine is wired for 120 Volts, 60 HZ alternating
current. Before connecting the machine to the power
source, make sure the switch is in the "OFF" position.
Grounding Instructions
DANGER:
This machine must be grounded while in
use to protect the operator from electric shock.
1 .
All grounded
, cord-connected machines:
ʵ 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
machine 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.
ʵ Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit
the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
ʵ 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.
ʵ Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the machine
is properly grounded.
ʵ Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding type plugs and matching 3-conductor
receptacles that accept the machine’s plug.
ʵ Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.
2 . Grounded, cord-connected machines intended for use on
a supply circuit having a nominal rating less than
150 volts:
ʵ If the machine is intended for use on a circuit that has
an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. B, the
machine will have a grounding plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in Fig. B. A temporary adapter, which
looks like the adapter illustrated in Fig. C, may be
used to connect this plug to a matching 2-conductor
receptacle as shown in Fig. C if a properly grounded
outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should
be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be
installed by a qualified electrician. The green-colored
rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adapter
must be connected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box. Whenever the adapter
is used, it must be held in place with a metal screw.

nOTE:
In Canada, the use of a temporary adapter is not

DANGER:
In all cases, make certain that the
receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you
are not sure, have a qualified electrician check
the receptacle.
EXTENSION CORDS
WARNING:
Use proper extension cords. Make sure
your extension cord is in good condition and is a
