Gear.Oil.Check
It is important to make sure the gear box has adequate oil
in it before running the sander for the first time, to ensure
the gears do not burn up.

1.
Remove the shipping seal from the side of the vent-
ed fill plug (
Figure.20
), if not already done so.
2.
Check the sight glass shown on the back of the gear
box to make sure gear oil is present.
3.
If the gearbox oil level is low, follow the steps on
Page.28.
to refill the oil.

2.
Feed the power wires through a strain relief on the
bottom of the junction box, tighten the strain relief,
connect the cord to the terminals shown in
Figure
18 or 19
,
and re-install the junction box cover.
Note.(Model.W1773.Only):
When using a phase
converter, connect the manufactured power leg or
"wild wire" to the L2 terminal (
Figure 19
). The L2
terminal can handle power fluctuation because it is
wired directly to the motor. The other wires con-
nect to the controls and must have consistent power
to prevent damage.
3.
Shut off the main power at the power source circuit
breaker, and attach the wires to the locking shutoff
switch to complete the power connection.
4.
Replace the junction box cover and turn on the lock-
ing shutoff switch to enable power.
