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 MACHINE DISCONNECTED FROM THE
POWER SOURCE. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY!
POWER SOURCE (120/240V)
Your sander's motor was designed for a specific frequency and voltage.
Make sure the voltage indicated on the machine nameplate corresponds
to the electrical outlet voltage output.
gROUNDINg
Your sander must be properly grounded. Not all outlets are properly
grounded. If you are not sure if your outlet is properly grounded, have it
checked by a qualified electrician. If it should malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current, to
reduce the risk of electric shock.
WARNINg: IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED, THIS 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.
120V OPERATION
As received from the factory, your sander is ready to run for 120V
operation. This sander is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet
and a plug which looks like the one illustrated in Fig.1.
WARNINg: DO NOT USE A TWO-PRONG ADAPTORS FOR THEY ARE
NOT IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES AND ORDINANCES.
NEVER USE IN CANADA.
240V OPERATION
If 240V, single phase operation is desired, the following instructions
must be followed:
1. Disconnect the machine from its power source.
2. The sander comes with four motor leads that are connected for 120V
operation. Reconnect these four motor leads for 240V operation, as
indicated on the inside of the connections cover.
3. The 120V plug supplied with the sander must be replaced with a CSA
listed plug suitable for 240V operation. This plug is illustrated in Fig.2.
Contact your authorized service center or qualified electrician to install
the plug and to change the connections from 120V to 240V. The
sander must comply with all local and national codes after the 240V
plug is installed.
4. A sander with a 240V plug should only be connected to an outlet
having the same configuration as illustrated by the grounded outlet box
in Fig.2. No adaptor is available or should be used for 240V operation.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power. Use the
following table Fig.3 to determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G-
American Wire Gauge) extension cord. Use only extension cords which
accept the tool's plug.
For circuits that are further away from the electrical circuit box, the wire size
must be increased proportionately in order to deliver ample voltage to the
motor. Refer to Fig.3 for wire length and size. Use only 3-wire extension
cords which have 3-prong grounding type plugs and 3-hole receptacles
which accept the tool's plug. If the extension cord is cut or damaged, do
not use it.
TURNINg ON YOUR SANDER
The sander motor is controlled by a toggle switch (A) Fig.4, this toggle
switch comes with a removeable safety key (B) which limits the usage of

your sander to authorized users. To turn sander on, move the switch
to the "ON" position, to turn sander off, move the switch to the "OFF"
position. To lock the switch once the sander is off, pull the safety key
(B) out. The sander can not be turned on until the safety key is
repositioned in the switch.
