Dust collection
DO NOt operate the Model G0716 without an
adequate dust collection system. this sand-
er creates substantial amounts of wood dust
while operating. failure to use a dust collec-
tion system can result in short and long-term
respiratory illness.
Recommended cfM at Dust port: 400 cfM
Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with
the rating of the dust collector. To determine the
CFM at the dust port, you must consider these
variables: (1) CFM rating of the dust collector,
(2) hose type and length between the dust col-
lector and the machine, (3) number of branches
or wyes, and (4) amount of other open lines
throughout the system. Explaining how to cal-
culate these variables is beyond the scope of
this manual. Consult an expert or purchase a
good dust collection "how-to" book.
Before the machine can be connected to the
power source, an electrical circuit and connec-
tion device must be prepared per the
pOWER
SUppLy section in this manual, and all previ-
ous setup instructions in this manual must be
complete to ensure that the machine has been
assembled and installed properly.
always make sure the power switch on the machine
is turned oFF (or the oFF button is pushed in)
before connecting/disconnecting power.
connecting power
insert the power cord plug into a matching power
supply receptacle. the machine is now connected
to the power source.
Disconnecting power
if you need to disconnect the machine from power
later, pull the plug completely out of the recep-
tacle. Make sure to grasp the plug when pulling it
from the receptacle—do not pull on the cord or it
could become damaged.
power connection
to connect a dust collection hose:
1. Fit the 4" dust hose over the dust collection
elbow, as shown in
figure 14, and secure in
place with a hose clamp.
2. tug the hose to make sure it does not come
off.
Note:
A tight fit is necessary for proper
performance.
