Electrical Connections
Electrical connections must be
made by a qualified electrician in compliance
with all relevant codes. The machine must be
properly grounded to help prevent electrical
shock and possible fatal injury.
A power plug is not provided with the 208 planer.
You may either connect one or "hard-wire" the
machine directly to your electrical panel provided
there is a disconnect near the machine. Consult
the wiring diagrams on pages 32-33 for further
clarification of wiring setup.
This machine must be grounded. Grounding
provides a path of least resistance to help divert
current away from the operator in case of
electrical malfunction.
Make sure the voltage of your power supply
matches the specifications on the motor plate of
the machine.
Extension Cords
The use of an extension cord is not recommended
for this machine, but if one is necessary make
sure the cord rating is suitable for the amperage
listed on the machine's motor plate. An undersize
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating.
The chart in Figure 7 shows the correct size cord
to use based on cord length and motor plate amp
rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
smaller the gauge number the heavier the cord.
Adjustments
Belt and Pulleys
1. Using a straight edge, align the motor pulley
(A, Fig. 8 ) and cutterhead pulley (B, Fig. 8).
The motor plate can be moved for alignment
by loosening the set screws (C, Fig. 9) in the
motor plate.
