-8- G8692 Portable Bandsaw and Stand
We have covered some basic electrical
requirements for the safe operation of your
bandsaw. These requirements are not nec-
essarily comprehensive. You must be sure
that your particular electrical configuration
complies with local and state codes. Ensure
compliance by checking with your local
municipality or a licensed electrician.
If you find it necessary to use an extension
cord with this machine:
• Only use a cord that is rated for standard ser-
vice (Grade S).
• Only use a cord that contains a grounding
prong.
• Use at least a 16 gauge cord if the cord is 50
feet long or less.
• Use at least a 14 gauge cord if the cord is
between 50-100 feet.
• Always repair or replace cords when they
become worn or damaged.
Extension Cords
DO NOT remove ground prong from plug to
fit into a two-pronged outlet!This machine
must have a ground prong in the plug to help
ensure that it is grounded. If the plug will
not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
Check with a qualified electrician or one of our
service personnel if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if you are in
doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
