WARNING:

Do not allow familiarity with your grinder to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Your grinder has a precision built electric motor. It should be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only (normal household current).
