-8-
G0565 Adjustable Sponge Sander
Serious personal injury could occur if you
connect the machine to the power source
before you have completed the set up pro-
cess. DO NOT connect the machine to the
power source until instructed to do so.
220V Single-Phase Grounding
In the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is
equipped with a power cord that has a grounding
wire, which must be properly connected to the
grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the outlet
must be properly installed and grounded. All elec-
trical connections must be made in accordance
with local codes and ordinances.
Amperage Draw
The 1 HP motor on the Model G0565 will draw
the following amps:
Amperage Draw ......................................9 Amps
Circuit Breaker Requirements
Install your machine on a dedicated circuit to
reduce the possibility of tripping the circuit break-
er. If the circuit breaker frequently trips, have the
circuit inspected by a qualified electrician. Never
use a larger circuit breaker than stated below, or
you will increase the risk of fire.
Circuit Breaker .............................10 Amp, 3 Pole
Plug Type
We recommend using a NEMA 6-15 plug and
receptacle to connect your machine to power.
SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
Electrocution or fire could
result if this machine is
not grounded correctly
or if your electrical con-
figuration does not com-
ply with local and state
codes. Ensure compliance
by checking with a quali-
fied electrician!
Your Shop Circuit Capacity
Always check to see if the wires in your circuit
are capable of handling the amperage draw from
your machine, as well as any other machines that
could be operating on the same circuit. If you are
unsure, consult a qualified electrician.
Extension Cords
We do not recommend the use of extension cords
on 220V equipment. Instead, arrange the place-
ment of your equipment and the installed wiring to
eliminate the need for extension cords.
If you find it absolutely necessary to use an
extension cord at 220V with your machine:
• Make sure the cord is rated for Standard
Service (grade S) or better.
• The extension cord must also contain a
ground wire and plug prong.
• Use at least a 16 gauge cord and make sure
the cord is less than 50 feet long.
