SWITCH BOX

Introduction

A conveniently located Switch Box allows the operator to:

turn the router ON and OFF from the front of the table

simultaneously operate other devices such as a light or a vacuum

It also features a resettable, internal circuit breaker that protects your equipment against overloads. See Figure 25.

Electrical Hookup

Proper grounding diverts potentially dangerous electricity away from the operator. The switch box is intended for use with a three-prong, grounded outlet. (See Figure 26, below.) The switch box's electrical cord features an equipment-grounding connector and a grounding plug. Insert the plug into an accommodating outlet that conforms to the National Electric Code (NEC) and all local electrical codes.

WARNING DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG

If it does not fit correctly, a qualified electrician must install a compatible outlet.

AVOID THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK NEVER connect the equipment grounding connector (green wire) to a "hot" electrical terminal. When repairing or replacing the electric plug or cord, DO NOT connect the grounding connector to a "hot" electrical terminal.

Consult a qualified electrician if you do not understand the grounding procedures, or if you are not sure whether the switch box is correctly grounded.

REPLACE DAMAGED CORDS

Damaged and/or worn cords must be repaired or replaced immediately.

Extension cords must be three-wire, 14 gauge or larger, with three-prong "male" plugs, and three hole "female" receptacles fabricated to accept the tool's plug.

The electrical outlets on the bottom of the switch box accept three-prong grounded plugs and the two-prong plugs of double insulated tools.
