Suspended dust particles and ignition sources.
Do not operate the
dust collector in areas were explosion risks are high. Areas of high risk
include, but are not limited to, areas near pilot lights, open flames, or other
ignition sources.
Fire suppression.
Only operate the dust collector in locations that contain
a fire suppression system or have a fire extinguisher nearby.
Impeller hazards.
Do not place your hands or tools near the open inlet
during operation for any reason. The powerful suction could easily cause
accidental contact with the impeller, which will cause serious personal
injury or damage to the machine. Always keep small animals and children
away from open dust collection inlets.
Avoiding sparks.
Do not allow steel or rocks to strike the impeller—this
may produce sparks. Sparks can smolder in wood dust for a long time
before a fire is detected. If you accidentally cut Into wood containing tramp
metal (nails, staples, spikes, etc.), immediately turn off the dust collector,
disconnect it from power, and wait for the impeller to stop—then empty the
collection container into an approved airtight metal container.
Operating location.
To reduce respiratory exposure to fine dust, locate
permanently installed dust collectors away from the working area, or in
another room that is equipped with a smoke detector. Do not operate the
dust collector in rainy or wet locations—exposure to water may create a
shock hazard or decrease the life of the machine.
Static electricity.
Plastic dust lines generate high amounts of static
electricity as dust chips pass through them. Although rare, sparks caused
by static electricity can cause explosions or fire. To reduce this risk, make
sure all dust lines are thoroughly grounded by using a grounding wire.
Regular cleaning.
Regularly check/empty the collection bags or drum to
avoid the buildup of fine dust that can increase the risk of fire. Make sure
to regularly clean the surrounding area where the machine is operated—
excessive dust buildup on overhead lights, heaters, electrical panels, or
other heat sources will increase the risk of fire.
Warning: If precautions are not heeded, it may result in minor injury and/or
possible machine damage.
Warning: If precautions are not heeded, it may result in serious injury or
possibly even death.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Refer to them often and use them to instruct others.
3.4 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 16 Amp
time lag fuse, tripping characteristic C. 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 (s) 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.

3.5 Motor Specifications
Your machine is wired for 240V, 50 HZ alternating current.
Before connecting the machine to the power source, make sure the switch
is in the “OFF” position.
3.6 Grounding Instructions
This machine must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from
electric shock.
Cord Connection:
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. 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 machine is properly grounded. Use only 3-wire extension
cords that have 2-prong grounding type plugs and matching 2-conductor
receptacles.

3.7 Extension Cords
Use proper extension cords.
Use proper extension cords. Make sure
your extension cord is in good condition and has a matching receptacle
which will accept the machine’s plug. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine.

SEVERE LACERATION HAZARD. TURN THE UNIT “OFF”,
DISCONNECT THE UNIT
from the power source and wait 2- 1/2 minutes
to allow time for internal rotating components to stop before installing or
removing accessories, before adjusting or changing set-ups, clearing
clogs or when making repairs. For your own safety, do not connect the
machine to the power source until the machine is completely assembled.
Please also make sure that you read and understand the entire instruction
manual.
