SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR OSCILLATING EDGE SANDERS

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION

ARNING

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 EDGE SANDER DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER

SOURCE. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY!

POWER SUPPLY

WARNING:

YOUR EDGE SANDER MUST BE CONNECTED TO A

220V, 15-AMP. MINIMUM BRANCH CIRCUIT. FAILURE TO

CONNECT IN THIS WAY CAN RESULT IN INJURY FROM SHOCK

OR FIRE.

GROUNDING

This Edge Sander must be grounded. If it should malfunction or

breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for

electric current, to reduce the risk of electric shock. This Edge

Sander 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 OF YOUR

EDGE SANDER, DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER THE GROUNDING

PRONG IN ANY MANNER.

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 EDGE

SANDER 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 REPLACED IMMEDIATELY.

220V OPERATION

As received from the factory, your Edge Sander is ready to operate

on a 220V circuit that has an outlet and a plug which looks like the

one illustrated in Fig.1.

WARNING: DO NOT USE TWO-PRONG ADAPTORS 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.

Depending on the length of extension cord needed, use the table

(Fig.2) to determine the minimum wire gauge (A.W.G-American

Wire Gauge). Use only 3-wire extension cords which have 3-prong

grounding type plugs and 3-hole receptacles which accept the tool’s

plug.

For circuits that are further away from the electrical circuit box, the

wire thickness must be increased proportionately in order to deliver

ample voltage to the Edge Sander motor. The smaller the gauge of

the extension cord, the thicker it will be in diameter.
