MK-170 Setup for Operation
Cutting Tile
1. Before connecting the MK-170 to a power supply, be sure the voltage, cycle
and phase meet the requirements of the table below.
2. If using an extension cord, make sure the length and wire gauge correspond
to the requirements listed in table on page 8. An extension cord that is
too small in wire gauge (diameter), or too long in length, will cause the motor
to overheat and could cause premature failure.
3. Use an approved Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI)
4. Do not cover the motor vents as this could lead to motor overheating.
DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL. It will do the job better and safer at the rate
for which it was.
In order to avoid breaker tripping, a 20-amp circuit breaker should be used.
