GENERAL

The power switch box is designed to be used with most Craftsman router tables. It provides the conven- ience of an "ON-OFF" switch box at the front

of the table, thus eliminating the need to reach underneath the table to turn the router "ON" and "OFF".

The power switch box also provides an optional simultaneous "ON-OFF" control of an additional

accessory, such as a light, vacuum, etc. The switch box incorporates an internal, resettable circuit breaker to provide protection in overload situations.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, ground-

ing provides the path of least resistance for electric current in order to reduce the risk of electric shock.

This switch box is equipped with an electric cord that has an equipment grounding connector and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a

matching outlet that is properly installed and ground- ed 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 risk of an electric shock. The conductor with insulation that has a green outer sur- face, 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 person if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if there is doubt as to whether the switch box is properly grounded.

Use only 14 gauge, or larger, three-wire extension cords that have three-prong grounding plugs and three-hole receptacles that accept the tool'splug.

Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.

The electrical outlet on the back of the switch box will accept either a two-prong plug from a DOUBLE INSULATED router or accessory, or a three-prong grounding type plug.

This switch box is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet, as illustrated in FIGURE A. The switch box has a grounding plug, as illustrated in FIGURE A.

If a properly grounded outlet is not available, a tem- porary adapter, as illustrated in FIGURE B, may be

used to connect this plug to a two-hole receptacle, as shown in FIGURE C.

The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear or lug extending from the adapter must be connected to

a permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box.

I_WARNING] Do not permit fingers to touch

terminals of the plug when installing or removing from the outlet. If not properly grounded, this power tool can present the potential hazard of electrical shock, which can possibly result in death, particularly when used in a damp location, in proximity to plumb- ing or out of doors. If an electrical shock occurs, there is always the potential of a secondary hazard, such as your hands contacting the router bit.

I,_WARNING Use the switch box only when

properly assembled to the router table. Use only with a router which has also been properly installed on a properly assembled router table.

SWITCH BOX OPERATION

This section explains the operation and features of

the switch box prior to plugging the power cord into an electrical outlet. The intent is to familiarize the

user with the switch box operation without actually turning on the router.
