G1061/G1061Z Buffing System -5-
110V Operation
SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
If you find it necessary to use an extension cord
with the Model G1061/G1061Z, make sure the
cord is rated Hard Service (grade S) or better.
Refer to the chart in the standard safety instruc-
tions to determine the minimum gauge for the
extension cord. The extension cord must also
contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair
or replace extension cords when they become
worn or damaged.
Extension Cords
Grounding
This equipment must be
grounded. Verify that any
existing electrical outlet
and circuit you intend to
plug into is actually
grounded. Under no cir-
cumstances should the
grounding pin from any
three-pronged plug be
removed. Serious injury
may occur.
In the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock by providing
electric current a path of least resistance. This
tool is equipped with a power cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor. See Figure 1B.
The outlet must be properly installed and ground-
ed in accordance with all local codes and ordi-
nances.
The Model G1061/G1061Z is wired for 110/120V.
The 1 H.P. motor will safely draw 10 amps at
110V. If you operate this machine on any circuit
that is already close to its capacity, it might blow
a fuse or trip a circuit breaker. However, if an
unusual load does not exist and a power failure
still occurs, contact a qualified electrician or our
service department.
A 15 amp dedicated circuit should be used with
this buffer. Always check to see if your current
wires are capable of handling a 15 amp load. If
you are unsure, consult the advice of a qualified
electrician.
