Improper connections of the electrical-grounding
conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The
conductor with green or green and yellow striped
insulation is the electrical-grounding conductor. If
repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug
is necessary, do not connect the equipment
grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Under no circumstances should the grounding
pin from any three-pronged plug be removed. If it
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 in doubt as to
whether the tool is properly grounded. Use only
3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong ground-
ing type plugs and 3-hole receptacles that accept
the tool’s plug. FIgure 1.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immedi-
ately.
-4- G1060 22'' Scroll Saw
110V Operation
Your G1060 22'' Scroll Saw is prewired for 110
volt, single phase operation. The
1
⁄8'' H.P. motor
draws approximately 2.2 amps. We strongly rec-
ommend fusing your Scroll Saw at 15 amps.
Fusing higher will not adequately protect the
motor.
Although the G1060 22'' Scroll Saw does not
draw a large load, if you’re using a circuit that is
already close to capacity, it might blow a fuse or
trip a circuit breaker. If an unusual load does not
exist and power failure still occurs, have the cir-
cuit inspected by a qualified electrician.
CAUTION: Be sure that your particular electrical
configuration complies with local and state codes.
The best way to ensure compliance is to check
with your local municipality or licensed electri-
cian.
Grounding
CAUTION: THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED
WHILE IN USE TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR
FROM ELECTRIC SHOCK.
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a
matching outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
