GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

▲DANGER: THIS MACHINE MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.

1. All grounded, cord-connected machines:

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 machine 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 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.

Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the machine is properly grounded.

Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding type plugs and matching 3-conductor receptacles that accept the machine's plug, as shown in Fig. A.

Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE, HAVE A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.

EXTENSION CORDS

A CAUTION: per extension cords.

Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching receptacle which will accept the machine's plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table shows the correct gauge to use depending on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE

ROUTINE INSPECTION

It is recommended that you periodically inspect your spindle sander as a precautionary action. During this time, check for the following:

• Inspect all hardware, fittings and fasteners that may have loosened due to vibration and re-tighten as needed.
• Check for dust and/or wood particles that may have accumulated on or in the machine. Check all dust collection fittings – re-tighten as needed.
• Inspect the ON/OFF SWITCH for damage before each use. Periodically inspect the power cord and plug for damage. If necessary replace the power cord and the plug at the first signs of visible damage.
• Check all table inserts, spindles and sanding sleeves for damage and replace if necessary.

BEARINGS

This floor spindle sander features factory-sealed bearings. A sealed bearing requires no lubrication during its lifetime. Should a bearing fail, your spindle sander will probably develop a noticeable rumble, which will increase when the machine is put under load. Bearings must be replaced when this occurs.

TO CHANGE THE GEAR OIL:

See Figure 13

Gear oil should be changed at 800 hours of use with a high-quality 90 Wt. SAE gear oil. The oil level sight glass (B) is located at the back of the gear box (A), on the left side near the motor. The sander takes approximately 2 quarts. The oil level should be checked at least monthly and oil added when indicated in the oil level sight glass. The oil fill cap is on top of the gear box and is visible as you look down on the spindle.

1. Open the access door located on the rear panel of the cabinet.
2. The oil drain valve and drainage tube (C) are located on the left side of the gear box. Place a catch basin beneath the clear drain line and open the valve to drain the gear oil.
3. Close the valve, remove the catch basin, and close the access door on the cabinet.

IMPORTANT: Check your local and/or state environmental codes to ensure that you properly dispose of all used oil.

1. Locate the oil fill cap. It is located on top of the gear box and is visible as you look down on the spindle. To provide easier access to the fill cap, remove the spindle.
2. Refill the gear box using a high quality 90-weight SAE gear lube oil.
3. Replace fill cap.
