purchase the hose and install as in STEPS 1 and 2 above. Whenever one of the dust intake ports is not in use, always be sure the dust cap is properly installed in the intake port for operator safety.

ALWAYS DISCONNECT DUST COLLECTOR FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE CONNECTING OR DISCONNECTING INTAKE HOSE.

CONNECTING TOOL TO POWER SOURCE

POWER CONNECTIONS

A separate electrical circuit should be used for your tools. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should be protected with a 20 Amp time lag fuse. Have a qualified electrician repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make certain the switch is in the “OFF” position and be sure that the electric current is of the same characteristics as stamped on the motor nameplate. All line connections should make good contact. Running on low voltage will damage the motor.

WARNING: DO NOT EXPOSE THE DUST COLLECTOR TO RAIN OR OPERATE THE MACHINE IN DAMP LOCATIONS.

MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS

Your tool is wired for 120 volt, 60 HZ alternating current. Before connecting the tool to the power source, make sure the switch is in the “OFF” position.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.

This tool must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service person if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the dust collector. If it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

120 VOLT,

SINGLE PHASE OPERATION

This tool must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock. The motor recommended for use with your dust collector is shipped wired for 120 Volt, Single Phase, and is equipped with an approved 3-conductor cord and 3-prong grounding type plug to fit the proper grounding type receptacle, as shown in Fig. 24. The green conductor in the cord is the grounding wire. Never connect the green wire to a live terminal.

A temporary adapter, shown in Fig. 25, is available for connecting 3-prong grounding type plugs to 2-prong receptacles if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. THIS ADAPTER IS NOT APPLICABLE IN CANADA. The green- colored rigid ear, lug, etc., extending from the adapter, is the grounding means and must be connected to a permanent ground such as to a properly grounded outlet box, as shown in Fig. 25. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place with a metal screw.
