Disabling & Locking
Switch
Figure 42.
The ON/OFF switch can be disabled and locked
by inserting a padlock through the ON button,
as shown. Locking the switch in this manner can
prevent unauthorized operation of the machine,
which is especially important if the machine is not
stored inside an access-restricted building.
IMPORTANT: Locking the switch with a padlock
only restricts its function. It is not a substitute
for disconnecting power from the machine when
adjusting or servicing.
