EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some drop in
voltage and loss of power.
• Wires of the extension cord must be of sufficientsize to
carry the current and maintain adequate voltage.
• Use the table to determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G.)
extension cord.
• Use only 3-wire extension cords having 3-prong grounding
type plugs and 3-pole receptacles which accept the too_plug.
• If the extension cord is worn, cut, or damaged in any way,
replace it immediately.
Extension Cord Length
Wire Size A.W.G.
Up to 25 ft........................................ 18
NOTE: Using extension cords over 25 ft. long is not
recommended.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING: Make sure unit is off and disconnected from
power source before inspecting any wiring.
The motor is installed and wiring connected as illustrated in
the wiring schematic (see Figure 4).
The motor is assembled with an approved three conductor cord
to be used on 120 volts as indicated. The power supp)y to the
motor is controlled by a slngle pole rocker switch.
The power lines are inserted directly onto the switch. The
green ground line must remain securely fastened to the frame
to properly protect against electrical shock.
Refer to Figures 5 - 42.

WARNING: Operation of any power tool can result in foreign
objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result in severe
eye damage. Always wear safety goggles complying with
Unites States ANSi Z87.1 (shown on package) before com-
mencing power tool operation. Safety goggles are available at

Recheck allIod{ing handles.They must be tightened securely
• Make sure all guards are properly attached. All guards
should be securely _stened.
- Make sure all moving parts are free and clear of any
interference.
• Make sure allfasteners aretight and have not vibrated loose.
• With power disconnected, test operation by hand for clear-
ance and adjust if necessary.
• Always wear eye protection or face shield.
• After turning switch on, always allow the spindle to come
up to full speed before turning.
• Be sure motor runs clockwise when viewing spindle exten-
sion from the left end (outboard side of headstock).
• Keep hands clear of spindle, centers, pulleys and other
