115 Volt Operation
Referring to Figure 6:
As received from the factory, your drill press is ready
to run at 115-volt operation. This drill press, when
wired for 115 volt, is intended for use on a circuit
that has an outlet and a plug that looks like the one
illustrated in (A). A temporary adapter, which looks
like the adapter shown in (B), may be used to
connect this plug to a two-pole receptacle if a
properly grounded outlet is not available. The
temporary adapter should only be used until a
properly grounded outlet can be installed by a
qualified electrician. The green colored rigid ear, lug,
or tab, extending from the adapter, must be
connected to a permanent ground such as a
properly grounded outlet box.

230 Volt Operation
Referring to Figure 7:
If 230V, single-phase operation is desired, the
following instructions must be followed:
1. Disconnect the machine from the power source.
2. The JET drill press motor has four numbered
leads that are factory connected for 115V
operation, as shown in (A). For 230V operation
reconnect the leads as shown in (B).
3. The 115V attachment plug (C), supplied with the
drill press, must be replaced with a UL listed
plug suitable for 230V operation (D). Contact
your local Authorized JET Service Center or
qualified electrician for proper procedures to
install the plug. The drill press must comply with
all local and national codes after the 230-volt
plug is installed.
4. The drill press with a 230-volt plug should only
be connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as shown in (D). No adapter is
available nor should be used with the 230-volt
plug.
