•
To remove the spur center from the spindle, insert the center
removal rod into the spindle and gently tap the center out.
Refer to Figure 7.
REMOVAL OF BEARING CENTER FROM RAM

POWER SOURCE
WARNING:
Do not connect wood lathe to the power source until
all assembly steps have been completed.
The motor is designed for operation on the voltage and frequency
specified. Normal loads will be handled safely on voltages not
more than 10% above or below specified voltage. Running the unit
on voltages which are not within range may cause overheating
and motor burn-out. Heavy loads require that voltage at motor ter-
minals be no less than the voltage specified on nameplate.
•
Power supply to the motor is controlled by a single pole lock-
ing rocker switch. Remove the key in the rocker switch to pre-
vent unauthorized use.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
Improper connection of equipment grounding conduc-
tor can result in the risk of electrical shock. Equipment should be
grounded while in use to protect operator from electrical shock.
•
Check with a qualified electrician if grounding instructions are
not understood or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly
grounded.
•
This tool is equipped with an approved 3-conductor cord rated
at 300V and a 3-prong grounding type plug (see Figure 9) for
your protection against shock hazards.
•
Grounding plug should be plugged directly into a properly
installed and grounded 3-prong grounding-type receptacle, as
shown (Figure 9).
•
Do not remove or alter grounding prong in any manner. In the
event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a
path of least resistance for electrical shock.
WARNING:
Do not permit fingers to touch the terminals of plug
when installing or removing from outlet.
•
Plug must be plugged into matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances. Do not modify plug provided. If it will not fit in out-
let, have proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
•
Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have them
repaired by an authorized service facility.
•
Green (or green and yellow) conductor in cord is the grounding
wire. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is nec-
essary, do not connect the green (or green and yellow) wire to
a live terminal.
•
Where a 2-prong wall receptacle is encountered, it must be
replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong receptacle installed
in accordance with National Electric Code and local codes and
ordinances.
WARNING:
This work should be performed by a qualified electri-
cian.
A temporary 3-prong to 2-prong grounding adapter (see Figure 10)
is available for connecting plugs to a two pole outlet if it is proper-
ly grounded.
•
Do not use a 3-prong to 2-prong grounding adapter unless
permitted by local and national codes and ordinances.
•
(A 3-prong to 2-prong grounding adapter is not permitted in
Canada.) Where permitted, the rigid green tab or terminal on
the side of the adapter must be securely connected to a per-
manent electrical ground such as a properly grounded water
pipe, a properly grounded outlet box or a properly grounded
wire system.
•
Many cover plate screws, water pipes and outlet boxes are not
properly grounded. To ensure proper ground, grounding means
must be tested by a qualified electrician.
