Machine Setup

To prepare the machine for use follow this procedure:
1. Familiarize yourself with the machine. Read all danger,
warning, and caution statements and the Operator's
Manual before operating the machine. If you or the
operator are unable to read English, have this manual
fully explained before attempting to operate this
machine.
2. Install or replace pad. The pad should be replaced if
it has become matted down to a thickness of 3/8" (9,5
mm) or less. To install or replace the pad, follow these
instructions:
A. Lock handle in the upright position.
B. Tilt the machine back until it fully rests on the
handle.
C. Standing over the machine, remove existing pad
then center new pad over grip face.
D. Press pad against grip face until the hooks in the
driver have set in the pad (see Figure 3).
E. Return machine to the upright position.
Use only an approved extension cord with three conductors, a plug with three terminals, and a connector body with three holes.
WARNING: If you use an extension cord, use an extension cord with minimum wire size 12 AWG. Do not use an extension cord longer than
50 feet. Do not join two extension cords.
Use only an approved extension cord with two main conductors and one earthing conductor.
WARNING: If you use an extension cord, use an extension cord with minimum wire size 1.50 mm2. Do not use an extension cord longer
than 15 meters. Do not join two extension cords.
WARNING: Do not cut, remove, or break the ground terminal. Do not try to fit a three-terminal plug into a receptacle or connector body
that does not fit the plug. If the receptacle or connector body does not fit the plug, see your Authorized person to make the
connection.
Instructions for connection to the power supply and the electrical ground.
This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electrical shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be
inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with qualified electrician
or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the
product – if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a grounding attachment plug that looks like the plug illustrated in figure 12. Make sure
that the product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product. Always connect
the machine to a dedicated 20 amp electrical line to prevent nuisance breaker tripping and line overload due to other devices.
WARNING:
To prevent possible electric shock, protect the machine from rain. Keep the machine in a dry building.
WARNING:
To prevent possible electric shock, always use a 3-wire electrical system connected to the electrical ground. For maximum
protection against electrical shock, use a circuit that is protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter. Consult your electrical
contractor.
