7. Plug cable puller into 110-120V 15 amp standard outlet.
WARNING: Electrical equipment is very hazardous in wet areas.
Properly ground puller, wear insulated footwear and gloves, keep the
operator zone dry, and keep cords in good condition. Failure to do so
could result in serious personal injury or death.
CAUTION: Inadequate size extension cords may fail. As the distance
from the supply outlet increases, heavier gauge extension cords are
required. The accompanying table, Figure 3, is based on limiting the line
voltage drop to five volts at 150% of the rated amperes. Inadequate size
results in voltage drop, loss of power, and possible motor damage.
Other precautions to protect the cord: keep cords away from excessive heat, sharp edges,
and the puller itself; and keep the cord out of damp or wet areas. Also, repair or replace
damaged extension cords before using.

CAUTION: Excessive voltage and/or voltage boosters will overwork the
motor. Ensure the outlet voltage matches the motor’s nameplate voltage.
Excessive voltage could result in motor failure.
8. To begin operation, grab rope, keeping tension on the rope throughout the pull, step on
foot pedal to start puller.
