SAFETY SYMBOLS
REPLACEMENT PARTS
When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
MOTOR
Many Porter-Cable tools will operate on either D.C., or single phase 25 to 60
cycle A.C. current and voltage within plus or minus 5 percent of that shown
on the specification plate on the tool. Several models, however, are designed
for A.C. current only. Refer to the specification plate on your tool for proper
voltage and current rating.
Do not operate your tool on a current on which the
voltage is not within correct limits. Do not operate tools rated A.C.
only on D.C. current. To do so may seriously damage the tool.
