6.0 Electrical connections
Electrical connections must be
made by a qualified electrician in compliance
with all relevant codes. This machine must be
properly grounded to help prevent electrical
shock and possible fatal injury.
6.1 GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This machine must be grounded. 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.
Before connecting to power source, be sure the
switch is in off position.
Check with 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.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord
immediately.
6.2 Single phase connections
Model VBS-18MWEVS Band Saw is wired from the
factory for 230 Volt, single phase operation.
It is not supplied with a plug. You may either install
a UL/CSA-listed plug suitable for 230 Volt operation,
or “hard-wire” the Band Saw directly to a service
panel.
It is recommended that the single phase Band Saw
be connected to a grounded and dedicated 30-amp
circuit with circuit breaker or time delay fuse marked
“D”. Local codes take precedence over
recommendations.
Figure 6-1
Important: In all cases, make certain the receptacle
in question is properly grounded. If you are not sure,
have a registered electrician check the receptacle.
