WARNING
ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS
INJURY! ALL ADJUSTMENTS OR REPAIRS MUST BE DONE WITH THE MACHINE DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER SOURCE.
FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY!
POWER SUPPLY
WARNING:
YOUR LINE BORING MACHINE MUST BE CONNECTED TO
A 110-120V WALL OUTLET, WITH A MINIMUM 15-AMP. BRANCH CIR-
CUIT AND USE A 15-AMP TIME DELAY FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER.
FAILURE TO CONNECT IN THIS WAY CAN RESULT IN INJURY FROM
SHOCK OR FIRE.
GROUNDING
Your Line Boring Machine must be properly grounded. Not all outlets are
properly grounded. If you are not sure if your outlet is properly grounded,
have it checked by a qualified electrician.
WARNING:
IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED, THIS LINE BORING MA-
CHINE CAN CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK, PARTICULARLY WHEN
USED IN DAMP LOCATIONS. TO AVOID SHOCK OR FIRE, IF THE
POWER CORD IS WORN OR DAMAGED IN ANY WAY, HAVE IT RE-
PLACED IMMEDIATELY.
If this Line Boring Machine should malfunction or breakdown, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric current, to reduce the risk of
electric shock. This Line Boring Machine is equipped with a cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING:
TO MAINTAIN PROPER GROUNDING, DO NOT REMOVE OR
ALTER THE GROUNDING PRONG IN ANY MANNER.
110-120V OPERATION
As received from the factory, your Line Boring Machine is ready to run for
110-120V operation. This machine is intended for use on a circuit that has
an outlet and a plug which looks like the one illustrated in Fig.1.
WARNING:
DO NOT USE A TWO-PRONG ADAPTOR(S) FOR THEY ARE
NOT IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES AND ORDINANCES.
NEVER USE IN CANADA.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power. If you do not
have a choice, use the table in Fig.2 to determine the minimum wire size
(A.W.G-American Wire Gauge) extension cord needed. Use only 3-wire ex-
tension cords which have 3-prong grounding type plugs and 3-hole recep-
tacles which accept the tool’s plug.
For circuits that are further away from the electrical circuit box, the wire size
must be increased proportionately in order to deliver ample voltage to the
Line Boring Machine motor. Refer to Fig.2 for wire length and size.
USING ON/OFF SWITCH WITH REMOVABLE SAFETY kEY
The On/Off switch (A) Fig.3 is used to turn the Line Boring Machine On and
Off. To turn the Line Boring Machine “On”, lift the switch upwards (On
position), to turn the Line Boring Machine “Off”, push and lower the switch

This switch comes with a removable safety key (B) Fig.3. When the
safety key is removed from the switch and placed in a safe location,
unauthorized persons or children can’t turn the switch to the On po-
sition. It is recommended to always remove the safety key from the
switch whenever the Line Boring Machine is not in use. To remove
the safety switch, make sure the switch is in the Off position and
simply pull out the safety key.
