230 VOLT MACHINES
INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONNECTION
TO THE POWER SUPPLY
AND THE ELECTRICAL GROUND
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the machine oper-
ate only on AC frequency and electri-
cal voltage shown on the nameplate.
Make sure you have the correct fre-
quency and voltage before connecting
the power cord to an outlet.
This product must be grounded. If it should mal-
function or breakdown, grounding provides a path
of least resistance for electric current to reduce the
risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with
a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor
and grounding plug. The plug must be inserted into
an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equip-
ment-grounding conductor can
result in a risk of electric shock.
Check with a qualifi ed electrician
or service person if you are in doubt
as to whether the outlet is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug
provided with the product - if it will
not fi t the outlet, have a proper outlet
installed by a qualifi ed electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 230 volt circuit
and has a grounding attachment plug that looks
like one of the plugs illustrated in Fig. 1. Make sure
that the product is connected to an outlet having the
same confi guration as the plug. No adaptor should
be used with this product.
This machine must be connected to the electrical
ground to protect the operator from electrical shock.
The machine has a power cord with two main conduc-
tors and one earthing conductor. Connect the plug to
the receptacle. The green or green and yellow conduc-
tor in the cord is the ground wire. Never connect this
wire to any terminal other than the ground terminal.

WARNING: To avoid electrical shock always use
this machine with an AC three-con-
ductor electrical system connected
to the electrical ground. Replace
any worn, cut or damaged cords.
Replace any damaged plugs, re-
ceptacles, or connector bodies.
Do not move the machine over an
electrical cord. Always lift the cord
over the machine.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use only an approved extension cord with two
main conductors and one earthing conductor. The
machine has a power cord with wire size 12 AWG
or 2.5mm
.

WARNING: To avoid motor burnout, if you use
an extension cord, use an exten-
sion cord with minimum wire size
of 10 AWG or 4.0mm
an extension cord longer than 40
feet or 15 meters. Do not join two
extension cords.
WARNING: To avoid electrical shock, do not cut,
remove or break the ground termi-
nal. Do not try to fi t a three-terminal
plug into a receptacle or connector
body that does not fi t the plug. If the
receptacle or connector body does
not fi t the plug, see your authorized
Clarke American Sanders dealer to
get an authorized person to make
the connection.
