EnGenius Technologies 28-248 instruction manual Functional Description, Foreword, Extension Cords

3.Grounded, cord-connected machines intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating between 150 - 250 volts, inclusive:

If the machine is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. C, the machine will have a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Fig. C. Make sure the machine is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter is available or should be used with this machine. If the machine must be re-connected for use on a different type of electric circuit, the re-connection should be made by qualified service personnel; and after re-connection, the machine should comply with the National Electric Code and all local codes and ordinances.

4.Permanently connected machines:

GROUNDED OUTLET BOX

CURRENT

CARRYING

PRONGS

GROUNDING BLADE

IS LONGEST OF THE 3 BLADES

Fig. C

If the machine is intended to be permanently connected, all wiring must be done by a qualified electrician and conform to the National Electric Code and all local codes and ordinances.

*Three phase operation: Three phase machines are not supplied with a power cord and must be permanently connected to a building’s electrical system. Extension cords can’t be used with a three phase machine.

EXTENSION CORDS

Use proper extension cords. Make sure that your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. D-1 or D-2, shows the correct gauge to use depending on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

FOREWORD

Delta Models 28-248 and the 28-475X are 14" wood cutting band saws. The band saws have a quick-tensioning blade mechanism for ease in changing blades and applying tension to the blade. These models have large 16"x16" cast iron tables that can be tilted 45° to the right and 8° to the left. The band saws also come with a 4" O.D. dust port for connecting the band saws to a dust collector.

NOTICE: The photo on the manual cover illustrates the current production model. All other illustrations contained in the manual are representative only and may not depict the actual color, labeling, or accessories and are intended to illustrate technique only.
