5.1Grounding instructions

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment- grounding conductor to a live terminal.

Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded. Failure to comply may cause serious or fatal injury.

Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool's plug.

5.2115 Volt operation

As received from the factory, your planer/molder is ready to run at 115 volt operation. This planer/molder, when wired for 115 volt, is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet and a plug that looks like the one illustrated in Figure 1a. A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter as illustrated in Figure 1b, may be used to connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle, as shown in Figure 1b if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should only be used 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, or tab, extending from the adapter, must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box, as shown in Figure 1b.

5.3230 Volt operation

If 230V, single phase operation is desired, the following instructions must be followed:

1.Disconnect the machine from the power source.

2.This planer/molder is supplied with four motor leads that are connected for 115V operation, as shown in Figure 2a. Reconnect these four motor leads for 230V operation, as shown in Figure 2b.

3.The 115V attachment plug, supplied with the planer/molder, must be replaced with a UL/CSA listed plug suitable for 230V operation, similar to the one shown in Figure 3. Contact your local Authorized JET Service Center or qualified electrician for proper procedures to install the plug. The planer/molder must comply with all local and national codes after the 230 volt plug is installed.
