“Gloss Boss” Burnisher GB-2000DC
Operation & Care Instructions
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
GROUNDING:
This burnisher must be grounded while in use to protect the opera-
tor from electric shock. The burnisher is equipped with an approved
three-conductor cord and three-prong grounding type plug to fit the
proper grounding type receptacle. The green (or green and yellow)
conductor in the cord is the grounding wire. Never connect the green
(or green and yellow) wire to a live terminal.
If your unit is for use on less than 150
volts, it has a plug like that shown in
Figure A.
If it is for use on 150 to 250 volts, it has a
plug like that shown in Figure D.
An adapter (Figures B&C) is available for connecting Figure A plugs
to two-prong receptacles. The green-colored rigid ear, lug etc., must
be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded
outlet box. No adapter is available for a plug as shown in Figure D.
Adapter shown in Figure B & C is not for use in Canada.
MOTOR:
This burnisher is powered by a 1-1/2 HP DC motor and will operate
on a 115 VAC 60HZ only. Be sure your power supply agrees with the
voltage marked on the name plates. A voltage decrease of more than
10% will cause the motor to slow down, thus increasing the current
draw and opening the circuit breaker.
EXTENSION CORDS:
Burnishers that have 3 wire cords requiring grounding must only be
used with extension cords that have 3-prong grounding type plugs
and 3-pole receptacles.
To determine the minimum wire size required, refer to the chart
