ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS/OPERATIONS
bail may not always locate the exact position of the center of gravity for the Floor Planer. A lifting handle is provided on the front of the main frame. This handle can be utilized by personnel whenever lifting/lowering the Floor Planer.
DANGER
EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN UTILIZING A MECHANICAL DEVICE FOR LIFTING THE FLOOR PLANER. UTILIZE THE MECHANICAL DEVICE IN ACCORDANCE TO BOTH ITS STATED STATIC AND DYNAMIC LOADING ENVELOPES. DO NOT UTILIZE THE MECHANICAL DEVICE UNTIL THIS INFORMATION IS PROPERLY KNOWN AND UNDERSTOOD BY ALL APPLICABLE PERSONNEL. FAILURE TO PROPERLY UTILIZE THE MECHANICAL DEVICE CAN RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
When transporting the Floor Planer on a motor vehicle, the fuel tank breather vent (if so equipped) must be completely closed to eliminate the accidental seepage of fuel and resulting potential fire and environmental hazards. In order to minimize the possibility of damage to the Floor Planer, always transport in its normal, upright position. All equipment must be secured in/on vehicles with suitable strapping or
STARTING THE 8FP/E SERIES ELECTRICALLY POWERED FLOOR PLANER ON THE JOBSITE.
1)Position the Floor Planer on a flat and level surface of firm foundation.
2)Determine that the ON/OFF switch located on the operator handle is in the OFF position.
3)Rotate the height adjustment lever located on the operator handle counterclockwise to raise the Floor Planer to its maximum height position above the work surface.
DANGER
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO START THE MOTOR WITHOUT FIRST DETERMINING THAT THE LOADED DRUM IS NOT IN CONTACT WITH THE WORK SURFACE. IF THE ROTATING FLAILS COME IN CONTACT WITHE THE WORK SURFACE BEFORE THE OPERATOR HAS ASSUMED FULL CONTROL, THE ACTION HAS THE POTENTIAL TO PULL THE FLOOR PLANER AWAY. A RUNAWAY FLOOR PLANER CAN CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL INJURY.
4)The electric motor req a clean, 10 ampere, 230 VAC, 60 Hz nominal power source. A clean power source refers to the amperage available on the individual electrical circuit selected. Additional electrical products already utilizing the same circuit will reduce the available amperage, resulting in starting and operational difficulties.
CAUTION
Operating the Floor Planer from a power source of improper voltage and amperage will result in unrepairable damage to the electric motor and related controls.
5)Providing proper voltage and amperage levels to the electric motor is essential to obtain maximum productivity and service life. Low voltage and amperage levels will cause the motor to overheat. The motor is equipped with an automatic thermal protection device that will stop it before major internal damage can result. After the motor has cooled to an acceptable temperature level, the switch must be manually activated to restart. FIGURE 24.
