110V Operation

The SHOP FOX® W1667 8 1⁄2'' Oscillating Drill Press can only be operated at 110 volts (see Figure 5). The motor draws approximately 5 amps. Choose an outlet with a 10 amp circuit breaker or fuse protection. Remember circuits being used by other machines at the same time add to the total electrical load being applied by this machine. If this total amperage load exceeds the amperage rating of the circuit breaker or fuse, use a different circuit with a higher amperage rating.

DO NOT modify an existing low-amperage circuit by only replacing the circuit breaker with a breaker rated for a higher amperage. The break- er and the complete circuit must be replaced by a qualified electrician.

Grounding

Ground this machine! The electrical cord sup- plied with the W1667 8 1⁄2'' Oscillating Drill Press comes with a grounding pin. DO NOT remove the pin if your outlet does not accept a ground pin, see Figure 5a. Have the outlet box replaced by a qualified electrician or have an appropriate adapter installed. Remember, an adapter with a grounding wire does not guaran- tee the machine will be grounded. A ground source must always be verified in the electrical circuit within the wall or conduit.

DISCONNECT power to machine before per- forming any electrical or mechanical ser- vice or maintenance. Seek assistance from a qualified electrician if you do not under- stand the wiring diagram in this manual. Always follow the applicable electrical codes and standards. Otherwise serious personal injury or death may occur!

Extension Cords

Using an extension cord with an undersized gauge or one that is too long, generates heat in the cord that may cause fire or circuit damage. If you must use an extension cord, use the guidelines below to determine the correct cord length and gauge. The amp rating of the motor is 9 amps and can be found on its nameplate.

•Use a cord rated for Standard Service (Grade S) •Use a cord that is 16 gauge and 100 feet or less only

•Use a cord with a ground wire and pin •Use only undamaged cords

Figure 5a. Never remove grounding pin.
