operation or performing it’s intended function. Check for binding and alignment of moving parts.
Check for damaged, broken, or missing parts.
2. Verify the On/Off switch is in the OFF position.
3. Before connecting the MK-2000 to a power supply, be sure the voltage, cycle and phase of the
job site power source meet one of the requirements of TABLE 3
VOLTAGE: 115v/240v
CYCLE: 60hz
PHASE: 1-phase
TABLE 3
4. If using an extension power cord, make sure the length and wire gauge correspond to he
requirements listed in TABLE 1 on page 9. An extension power 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.
5. Do not cover the motor vents as this could lead to motor overheating.
NOTE: In order to avoid breaker tripping, a 20-amp circuit breaker should be used.
