Once the assembly is complete, test run your
machine to make sure it runs properly and is
ready for regular operation.
The test run consists of verifying the following: 1)
The motor powers up and runs correctly, and 2)
the safety disabling mechanism works correctly.
If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate
the source of an unusual noise or vibration,
stop using the machine immediately, then review
Troubleshooting on Page 17.
If you still cannot remedy a problem, contact our
Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 for assistance.
Test Run
Operating, plugging, or unplugging any elec-
trical machine into a power source with wet
hands or feet could cause electrocution. Dry
off hands and power plug, and make sure
feet and ground are dry before plugging or
unplugging any electrical machine into a
power source.
Loose hair, clothing, or
jewelry could get caught
in machinery and cause
serious personal injury.
Keep these items away
from moving parts at all
times to reduce this risk.
Projectiles thrown from
the machine could cause
serious eye injury. Wear
safety glasses at all
times.

To test run the machine:
1. Make sure you have read the safety instruc-
tions at the beginning of the manual and that
the machine is setup properly.
2. Make sure all tools and objects used during
setup are cleared away from the machine.
3. Make sure the lower blade guard is installed
and is covering the blade above the table
surface.
4. Make sure the blade cover is installed and is
covering the blade below the table.
5. With dry hands, a dry plug, and dry feet, con-
nect the machine to the power source. Make
sure the cord is positioned in a "drip loop,"
as shown in
Figure 6. A drip loop is created
when the cord is positioned below the level of
the outlet. This prevents water from running
down the cord and into the outlet. Instead,
the water will drip into the floor at the "drip
loop" on the cord.
