SAFETY

110V Operation

The Shop Fox® W1679 is prewired for 110 volts. The motor supplied with your new machine is rated at 1 HP and will draw approximately 14 amps. When choosing an outlet for this machine, consider using one with a 15 amp circuit break- er or fuse. When choosing plug and outlet, use a NEMA-style 5-15 as shown in Figure 6. Keep in mind that a circuit being used by other machines or tools at the same time will add to the elec- trical load being applied by the machine. Add up the load ratings of all machines on the circuit. If this number exceeds the rating of the circuit breaker or fuse, use a different circuit.

Do not remove the ground- ing pin from any plug and always make sure all wiring to the machine is grounded before operating. Any elec- trical outlet and circuit that you plug your machine into must be grounded. Serious injury may occur if this warning is ignored!

Extension Cords

When it is necessary to use an extension cord, use the following guidelines:

•Use cords rated for Hard Service •Never exceed a length of 100 feet •Use cords with 14 ga. wire or bigger (12 ga., 10 ga., etc.)

•Make sure cord has a ground wire and pin •Do not use damaged cords

Grounding

This machine must be grounded! The electrical cord supplied with the Model W1679 comes with a grounding pin. Do not remove it. See Figure 7. If your outlet does not accommodate a ground pin, have it replaced by a qualified electrician or have an appropriate adapter installed. Please note: when using an adapter, the adapter must be grounded.

An adapter with a grounding wire does not guar- antee the machine will be grounded. A ground source must be verified.
