Before You Begin
The AMMCO
®
800 On-The-Vehicle Brake Lathe is
intended to resurface the disc brake rotors on pas-
senger cars, RV, and up through 1-ton trucks. Using
this lathe for other purposes could result in personal
injury and/or equipment damage; therefore no
attempt will be made to identify all uses for which this
lathe is not intended.
Receiving
1.0
The shipment should be thoroughly inspected
as soon as it is received. The signed bill of lading is
acknowledgement by the carrier of receipt in good
condition of shipment covered by our invoice.
If any of the goods called for on this bill of lading are
shorted or damaged, do not accept them until the car-
rier makes a notation on the freight bill of the shorted
or damaged goods. Do this for your own protection.
NOTIFY THE CARRIER AT ONCE if any hidden loss
or damage is discovered after receipt and request the
carrier to make an inspection. If the carrier will not do
so, prepare a signed statement to the effect that you
have notified the carrier (on a specific date) and that
the carrier has failed to comply with your request.
IT IS DIFFICULT TO COLLECT FOR LOSS OR DAM-
AGE AFTER YOU HAVE GIVEN THE CARRIER A
CLEAR RECEIPT.
File your claim with the carrier promptly. Support
your claim with copies of the bill of lading, freight bill,
invoice, and photographs, if available.
Although AMMCO’s responsibility ceases upon
delivery of the shipment to the carrier, we will gladly
assist in tracing lost shipments. Our willingness to
assist in every possible manner does not make
AMMCO responsible for collection of claims or
replacement of lost or damaged materials. Shipping
damage claims will not be handled under warranty.
Electrical Requirements
2.0
The lathe must be properly grounded to protect
the operator from shock. The lathe is equipped with an
approved 3-conductor cord and a 3-prong grounding
type plug to fit the proper grounding-type receptacle.
Should an extension cord be required, use 3-conduc-
tor cords with 3-prong grounding plug and 3-prong
grounding receptacle properly rated to handle this
electrical power tool only. Do not modify a cord or plug
to match a receptacle; have a qualified electrician
install an appropriate outlet to match the lathe require-
ments. Repair or replace any worn or damaged power
cords immediately.
2.1
Verify that the lathe plug and grounding-type
receptacle match.
CAUTION
Plug and Receptacle Should Match
