Assembly
Kit. K.5240 contains three basic components– a reversing motor (with flexible shaft in protective
sheath), foot pedal, and handpiece. Assembly is very simple:
The flexible shaft and sheath come attached to the motor.
The removable handpiece also comes attached to the flexible shaft.
To connect the motor to the foot pedal, insert the 3-prong plug on the end of the motor power
cord into the socket connector on the shorter power cord in the foot pedal.
With the motor Forward/Off/Reverse Switch in the “off” position, plug the 3-prong plug on the
longer power cord from the foot control into a proper 3-wire electrical outlet.
The switch on the motor selects the rotational direction and turns the machine on & off (the foot
pedal is used to vary speed).
The machine is now ready to operate.
