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 20 Amp time lag fuse.
nOTE: Time delay fuses should be marked "D" in Canada
and "T" in the U.S. 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 (or switches) 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.

DANGER: Do not expose the machine to rain or
operate the machine in damp locations.

Motor Specifications

Your machine is wired for 120 Volts, 60 Hz alternating
current. Before connecting the machine to the power
source, make sure the switch is in the "OFF" position.
Grounding Instructions (Fig B, C)

DANGER: This machine must be grounded while
in use to protect the operator from electric shock.
1. All grounded, cord-connected machines:
-
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 3-prong
grounding type plugs and matching 3-conductor
receptacles that accept the machine's plug, as
shown in Fig. B.
-
Repair or replace damaged or worn
cord immediately.

2. grounded, cord-connected machines intended for
use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating less
than 150 Volts:
-
If the machine is intended for use on a circuit that
has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in
Fig. B, the machine will have a grounding plug that
looks like the plug illustrated in Fig. B. A temporary
adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated
in Fig. C, may be used to connect this plug to a
matching 2-conductor receptacle as shown in
Fig. C if a properly grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until
a properly grounded outlet can be installed by
a qualified electrician. The green-colored rigid
ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adapter
must be connected to a permanent ground such
as a properly grounded outlet box. Whenever the
adapter is used, it must be held in place with a
metal screw.
