Operating instructions
INSPECTION
Please carefully unpack and inspect your machine
for shipping damage. Each unit is operated and thor-
oughly inspected before shipment, and any damage is
the responsibility of the delivering carrier who should be
notified immediately.
ELECTRICAL
This rotary polisher is designed to operate on a standard 15
amp, 115 volt, 60 hz, AC household current. Check that the
voltage shown on the serial number plate is suitable for the
supply available. Voltages below 105 volts or above 125 volts
could cause damage to the motor.
NOTE: 230/250 volt 50 hz models are available.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break
down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current
to reduce the risk of electric shock. This appliance is equipped with a
cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding plug.
The plug must be inserted into an appropriate outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualified electrician or service person
if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is prop-
erly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with
the appliance - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This appliance is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit,
and has a grounded plug that looks like the plug in “Fig.
A” below. A temporary adaptor that looks like the adaptor
in “Fig . C” below may be used to connect this plug to a
2-pole receptacle as shown in “Fig. B” below, if a properly
grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adaptor
should be used only until a properly grounded outlet (Fig.
A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The green
colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the
adaptor must be connected to a permanent ground such
as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the
adaptor is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.
