utilizes a table that moves on a horizontal plane

and a grinding wheel that moves along a vertical

axis. By mounting a workpiece to the table, then

grinding results.

The dust port can be connected to a chip

extraction system to pull away waste material

and fumes created during the grinding

process, resulting in a cleaner and safer work

environment.

One example of this type of work is the table

surface of a metalworking or woodworking

machine that needs to be made perfectly flat.

By removing the table from the machine and

processing it with a surface grinder, a perfectly

flat surface can be created.

The included diamond dresser is used to true the

grinding wheel, ensuring high-precision results.

Another example of this type of work is in the

automotive industry. When a head gasket needs

replacing, it is common practice to resurface the

engine head to make sure it is perfectly flat, in

case any warping has occurred.

Aside from these features, we designed this

machine to be extremely solid and durable.

With thick, hardened steel ways, cast-iron

construction, and Allen Bradley electrical

components, this South Bend surface grinder is

built to last.

entanglement, amputation, crushing,

or strangulation. Reduce this risk by

removing/securing these items so they

cannot contact moving parts.

11. Chuck Keys or Adjusting Tools: Tools used

to adjust spindles, chucks, or any moving/

rotating parts will become dangerous

projectiles if left in place when the machine

is started. Reduce this risk by developing

the habit of always removing these tools

immediately after using them.

12. Work Area: Clutter and dark shadows

increase the risks of accidental injury.

Only operate this item in a clean, non-

glaring, and well-lighted work area.

6. Mental Alertness: Operating this item

with reduced mental alertness increases

the risk of accidental injury. Do not let a

temporary influence or distraction lead to a

permanent disability! Never operate when

under the influence of drugs/alcohol, when

tired, or otherwise distracted.

13. Properly Functioning Equipment: Poorly

maintained, damaged, or malfunctioning

equipment has higher risks of causing

serious personal injury compared to

those that are properly maintained.

To reduce this risk, always maintain

this item to the highest standards and

promptly repair/service a damaged or

malfunctioning component. Always follow

the maintenance instructions included in

this documentation.

7. Safe Environment: Operating electrically

powered equipment in a wet environment

may result in electrocution; operating near

Additional Surface Grinder Safety

6. Cracked Wheel: Cracked wheels may break

1. Eye Protection: Grinding causes small

particles to become airborne at a high

rate of speed creating a risk of eye injury.

ALWAYS wear eye protection when using

this machine.

and ﬂy apart during operation, increasing

the risk of impact injuries. Replace cracked

wheels immediately!

7. Lung Protection: Grinding produces

hazardous dust, which may cause long-term

respiratory problems if breathed. Always

wear a NIOSH approved dust mask or

respirator when grinding.

2. Wheel Speed Rating: Wheels operated at

a faster speed than they are rated for may

break or ﬂy apart and impact the operator

or bystanders. Before mounting a new

wheel, be sure the wheel RPM rating is

equal to or higher than the speed of the

grinder.

8. Workpiece Contact: A heavy impact on a

grinding wheel or attempting too deep of a

cut can cause it to break or ﬂy apart, causing

serious personal injuries. Avoid jamming the

workpiece into the wheel to reduce this risk.

3. Hand/Wheel Contact: Grinding wheels

have the capability of removing a lot

of skin fast. Make sure the workpiece

is securely clamped to the table, then

position your hands a safe distance away

when grinding. Avoid wearing gloves as

they may get caught in the grinding wheel

and cause serious entanglement injuries.

9. Wheel Flanges: Only use the ﬂanges

included with the grinder when mounting

wheels. Other ﬂanges may not properly

secure the wheel and could cause the wheel

to ﬂy off or break apart.

10. Fire Hazard: DO NOT connect a surface

grinder to a dust collection system that is

used with woodworking machines. Sparks

emitted from the grinding process may ignite

wood particles, resulting in ﬁre or explosion.

Only use a metal-speciﬁc dust collection

system with this machine.

4. Ring Test: Perform a "ring test" on grinding

wheels before installation to ensure that

they are safe to use. A wheel that does not

pass the ring test may break or ﬂy apart

during operation.

5. Starting Grinder: If a wheel IS damaged, it

will usually ﬂy apart shortly after start-up.

Standing in the wheel path increases the

risk of impact injuries. To protect yourself,

always stand out of the wheel path when

turning the grinder ON.

Circuit Information

Power Supply

A power supply circuit includes all electrical

equipment between the main breaker box or fuse

panel in your building and the incoming power

connections inside the machine. This circuit must

be safely sized to handle the full-load current

that may be drawn from the machine for an

extended period of time.

Requirements

Availability

Before installing the machine, consider the

availability and proximity of the required power

supply circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet

the requirements for this machine, a new circuit

must be installed.

For your own safety and protection of property,

consult a qualiﬁed electrician if you are unsure

about wiring practices or electrical codes in

your area.

To minimize the risk of electrocution, fire,

or equipment damage, installation work and

electrical wiring must be done by a qualified

electrician in accordance with all applicable

codes and standards.

Note: The circuit requirements listed in this

manual apply to a dedicated circuit—where only

one machine will be running at a time. If this

machine will be connected to a shared circuit

where multiple machines will be running at

the same time, consult a qualified electrician to

ensure that the circuit is properly sized for safe

operation.

Electrocution or fire may

occur if machine is not

correctly grounded and

attached to the power

supply. Use a qualified

electrician to ensure a safe

power connection.

Circuit Requirements for 220V

This machine is prewired to operate on a 220V

power supply circuit that has a veriﬁed ground

and meets the following requirements:

Full-Load Current Rating

The full-load current rating is the amperage

a machine draws at 100% of the rated output

power. On machines with multiple motors, this is

the amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum

of all motors and electrical devices that might

operate at one time during normal operations.

Nominal Voltage ...............................220V/240V

Cycle .............................................................60 Hz

Phase ....................................................... 3-Phase

Circuit Rating....................................... 15 Amps

Plug/Receptacle ..........................NEMA L15-15

Full-Load Rating at 110V.................. 4.2 Amps

Full-Load Rating at 220V.................. 2.4 Amps

Circuit Requirements for 440V

This machine can be converted to operate on

a 440V power supply. To do this, follow the

Voltage Conversion instructions included in

this manual. The intended 440V circuit must

have a verified ground and meet the following

requirements:

The full-load current is not the maximum

amount of amps that the machine will draw. If

the machine is overloaded, it will draw additional

amps beyond the full-load rating.

If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient

length of time, damage, overheating, or fire may

result—especially if connected to an undersized

circuit. To reduce the risk of these hazards,

avoid overloading the machine during operation

and make sure it is connected to a power supply

circuit that meets the requirements in the

following section.

Nominal Voltage ...............................440V/480V

Grounding Requirements

In the event of certain types of malfunctions or

breakdowns, grounding provides a path of least

resistance for electric current—in order to reduce

the risk of electric shock.

Serious injury could occur if you connect

the machine to power before completing the

setup process. DO NOT connect to power until

instructed later in this manual.

For 220V Connection (Prewired)

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding

wire can result in a risk of electric shock. The

wire with green insulation (with or without

yellow stripes) is the equipment-grounding wire.

If repair or replacement of the power cord or

plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-

grounding wire to a live (current carrying)

terminal.

This machine is equipped with a power cord

that has an equipment-grounding wire and a

grounding plug (similar to the figure below).

The plug must only be inserted into a matching

receptacle (outlet) that is properly installed and

grounded in accordance with all local codes and

ordinances.

GROUNDED

Check with a qualiﬁed electrician or service

personnel if you do not understand these

grounding requirements, or if you are in doubt

about whether the tool is properly grounded.

15-15 RECEPTACLE

Current Carrying Blades

If you ever notice that a cord or plug is

damaged or worn, disconnect it from power, and

immediately replace it with a new one.

PLUG

Grounding Pin

Extension Cords

Figure 2. NEMA 15-15 plug and receptacle.

We do not recommend using an extension cord

with this machine. If you must use one, only

use it if absolutely necessary and only on a

temporary basis.

For 440V Connection

Power supply connections that are hardwired

to the power source must be connected to a

grounded metal permanent wiring system, or

to a system having an equipment-grounding

conductor.

Extension cords cause voltage drop, which may

damage electrical components and shorten motor

life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord

size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller

(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).

Cleaning & Protecting

The unpainted surfaces are coated at the factory

with a heavy-duty rust preventative that

prevents corrosion during shipment and storage.

The beneﬁt of this rust preventative is that it

works very well. The downside is that it can be

time-consuming to thoroughly remove.

Many cleaning solvents are

toxic if inhaled. Minimize

your risk by only using

these products in a well

ventilated area.

Be patient and do a careful job when cleaning

and removing the rust preventative. The time

you spend doing this will reward you with

smooth-sliding parts and a better appreciation

for the proper care of the unpainted surfaces.

Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as

acetone or brake parts cleaner that may

damage painted surfaces. Always follow the

manufacturer’s instructions when using any

type of cleaning product.

Although there are many ways to successfully

remove the rust preventative, we have cleaned

thousands of machines and found the following

process to be the best balance between efﬁciency

and minimized exposure to toxic fumes or

chemicals.

Basic steps for removing rust preventative:

1. Put on safety glasses and disposable gloves.

2. #OAT ALL SURFACES THAT HAVE RUST PREVENTATIVE

with a liberal amount of your cleaner or

degreaser and let them soak for a few

minutes.

Before cleaning, gather the following:

$ISPOSABLE rags

#LEANERꢀDEGREASER (certain citrus-based

degreasers work extremely well and they

have non-toxic fumes)

3. Wipe off the surfaces. If your cleaner or

degreaser is effective, the rust preventative

will wipe off easily.

3AFETY GLASSES ꢁ DISPOSABLE GLOVES

Note: To clean off thick coats of rust preventative

on ﬂat surfaces, such as beds or tables, use

A 0,!34)# PAINT SCRAPER TO SCRAPE OFF THE

majority of the coating before wiping it off

WITH YOUR RAGꢄ ꢅ$O NOT USE A METAL SCRAPER OR

it may scratch the surface.)

Note: Automotive degreasers, mineral spirits, or

7$sꢂꢃ CAN BE USED TO REMOVE RUST PREVENTATIVEꢄ

Before using these products, though, test them

on an inconspicuous area of a painted area to

make sure they will not damage it.

4. Repeat Steps 2–3 as necessary until clean,

then coat all unpainted surfaces with a

quality metal protectant or light oil to

prevent rust.

Gasoline and petroleum

products have low flash

points and can explode

or cause fire if used for

cleaning. Avoid using these

products to remove rust

Weight Load

Location

Refer to the Machine Speciﬁcations for the

weight of your machine. Make sure that the

surface upon which the machine is placed will

bear the weight of the machine, additional

equipment that may be installed on the machine,

and the heaviest workpiece that will be used.

Additionally, consider the weight of the operator

and any dynamic loading that may occur when

operating the machine.

Physical Environment

The physical environment where your machine

is operated is important for safe operation and

longevity of parts. For best results, operate this

machine in a dry environment that is free from

excessive moisture, hazardous or flammable

chemicals, airborne abrasives, or extreme

conditions. Extreme conditions for this type

of machinery are generally those where the

ambient temperature is outside the range of 41°–

104°F; the relative humidity is outside the range

of 20–95% (non-condensing); or the environment

is subject to vibration, shocks, or bumps.

Space Allocation

Consider the largest size of workpiece that will

be processed through this machine and provide

enough space around the machine for adequate

operator material handling or the installation

of auxiliary equipment. With permanent

installations, leave enough space around

the machine to open or remove doors/covers

as required by the maintenance and service

described in this manual.

Electrical Installation

Place this machine near an existing power

source. Make sure all power cords are protected

from traffic, material handling, moisture,

chemicals, or other hazards. Make sure to leave

access to a means of disconnecting the power

source or engaging a lockout/tagout device.

Children or untrained

people may be seriously

injured by this machine.

Only install in an access

restricted location.

Lighting

Lighting around the machine must be adequate

enough that operations can be performed

safely. Shadows, glare, or strobe effects that

may distract or impede the operator must be

eliminated.

Lifting & Moving

Leveling & Mounting

Generally, you can either bolt your machine

to the ﬂoor or mount it on machine mounts.

Although not required, we recommend that you

secure the machine to the ﬂoor and level it while

doing so. Because this is an optional step and

ﬂoor materials may vary, hardware for securing

the machine to the ﬂoor is not included.

This machine and its

parts are heavy! Serious

personal injury may occur

if safe moving methods are

not used. To reduce the

risk of a lifting or dropping

injury, ask others for help

and use power equipment.

We strongly recommend securing your

machine to the floor if it is hardwired to the

power source. Consult with your electrician to

ensure compliance with local codes.

Unbolt the machine from the pallet and make

sure that the table is locked in place. Connect

lifting straps to all four lifting hooks (Figure

7) on the machine, use a hoist or forklift to lift

the machine off the pallet, and move it to the

suitable location. All hoisting equipment and

straps must be rated to lift at lease 2500 lbs.

Leveling

Leveling machinery helps precision components,

such as bed ways, remain straight and ﬂat

during the lifespan of the machine. Components

on an unleveled machine may slowly twist due to

the dynamic loads placed on the machine during

operation.

Never attempt to move this machine without

first installing the neoprene shipping seats

(see Figure 14). These seats protect the

longitudinal way and ball bearings from

vibration, or possible moisture pitting if

machine is to be put in long-term storage.

Ignoring this notice, can lead to way or

bearing damage which will void warranty.

For best results, use a precision level that

is at least 12" long and sensitive enough to

show a distinct movement when a 0.003" shim

(approximately the thickness of one sheet of

standard newspaper) is placed under one end of

the level.

See the ﬁgure below for an example of a high

precision level.

OPERATION

To complete a typical operation, the operator

does the following:

1. Examines the grinding wheel to make sure

it is suitable for use (has no visible cracks or

large chips).

Operation Overview

The purpose of this overview is to provide

the novice machine operator with a basic

understanding of how the machine is used during

operation, so they can more easily understand

the controls discussed later in this manual.

2. Examines the workpiece to make sure it is

prepared for grinding.

Note: Due to the generic nature of this overview,

it is not intended to be an instructional guide

for performing actual machine operations.

To learn more about speciﬁc operations and

machining techniques, seek training from people

experienced with this type of machine, and do

additional research outside of this manual by

reading "how-to" books, trade magazines, or

websites.

3. Uses the elevation handwheel to raise

the grinding wheel assembly to provide

clearance when mounting the workpiece.

4. Wipes the table surface clean to remove any

debris that may interfere with the clamping

process.

5. Uses a magnetic chuck to hold the workpiece

to the table, then turns the elevation

handwheel to lower the grinding wheel to

just above the top surface of the workpiece.

To reduce the risk of

serious injury when using

this machine, read and

understand this entire

manual before beginning

any operations.

6. Turns the grinder ON, then stands to the

side of the wheel path while the wheel

reaches full speed.

7. Performs the grinding operation.

Note: Because the method for performing each

grinding operation varies, specific actions

are not listed here.

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.

8. When the grinding operation is complete,

turns the machine OFF and allows the

grinding wheel to come to a complete stop.

9. Removes the workpiece from the table.

During operation, small

metal chips may become

airborne, leading to serious

eye injury. Wear safety

glasses to reduce this risk.

Wheel Inspection

Ring Test

Do not assume that a wheel is in sound condition

just because it is new—damage can often occur

during shipping, with age, with prolonged

exposure to moisture, or because of improper

storage.

This test will give you an indication of any

internal damage that may not be obvious during

a visual inspection.

To perform a ring test:

1. Make sure the wheel is clean and dry;

To inspect a wheel for damage:

otherwise, you may get false results.

1. Remove the wheel and look for any cracks,

chips, nicks or dents in the surface of the

wheel. If you see any of these, DO NOT

attempt to use the wheel.

2. Hang the wheel in the air with a piece of

cord or string looped through the hole in the

center, as shown in Figure 20.

2. Do a ring test. This test will give you an

indication of any internal damage that may

not be obvious during a visual inspection.

3. Inspect the paper washers on both sides of

the grinding wheel (see Figure 19). These

washers are cushions between the spacer

washer and the grinding wheel seat. Without

the washers, cracks can be spawned from

the center of the wheel when the spanner

nut is tightened. Over time, these cracks can

radiate outward and the wheel may explode

during operation, possibly causing injury.

Paper

Washer

Figure 20. Ring test setup and test locations.

3. At the locations shown in Figure 20, gently

tap the wheel with a light non-metallic

device such as the handle of a screwdriver or

a wooden mallet.

Figure 19. Important paper washer.

An undamaged wheel will emit a clear

metallic ring or “ping” sound in each of these

spots. A damaged wheel will respond with

a dull thud that has no clear tone. If you

determine from the ring test that the wheel

is damaged, DO NOT use it!

Note: If you need to replace or install new paper

washers, replacements can be cut out of

any thick construction paper or card stock.

Regular notebook paper or paper from a copy

machine is not acceptable, as it is too thin

to provide the required cushion. Be sure to

transfer any RPM limitations and wheel type

information.

To dress the grinding wheel:

Wheel Dressing

1. Insert the diamond-tipped dressing tool into

its base (see Figure 38), and use a 4mm hex

wrench to tighten the locking set screw.

Superior grinding results can only be achieved

with a properly balanced and dressed wheel. Do

not assume that a wheel will run true on the

spindle if it is new or has not been separated

from the hub.

Dressing the wheel correctly will save you from

wasting grinding abrasive and shattering the

dressing tool diamond. Additionally, with a

properly balanced and dressed wheel you can

rest assured that if you have finish problems, the

grinding wheel will not be the culprit.

Depending on the finish required, varying

degrees of roughness can be obtained. For

example: A fast dressing at a depth of 0.03mm

will prepare a wheel surface for rough cuts, and

slow dressing with multiple light passes at a

depth of 0.01mm will prepare the same wheel for

finish cuts.

Figure 38. Dressing tool setup.

2. Lower the headstock so the wheel is

approximately 5mm lower than the tip of the

dressing tool.

Positioning is critical for the dressing tool

so you will not shatter the diamond or have

poor results. For best results and safe use, the

dressing tool must be positioned in the trailing

zone of the wheel, as shown in Figure 37. If the

tool is positioned on the leading side of the wheel,

the diamond will be shattered or even grabbed by

the wheel and drawn under the grinding wheel,

causing severe injury or property damage.

3. Position the tip of the dressing tool at the

trailing side of the wheel, as shown in

4. Without letting any of the balance dogs or

lock balls fall out of the hub, use a 2.5mm

hex wrench to loosen the dogs and position

them at the 0°, 120°, and 240° degree

locations indicated by the degree scale on the

hub (see Figure 40).

Wheel Balancing

Static wheel balancing can be difficult and very

time consuming without practice. For accurate

grinding results, wheel balancing is mandatory.

For this balancing procedure, you will need a

wheel balancing fixture. The wheel balancing

fixture shown in Figure 39 is one example of the

many varieties available on the market.

Before proceeding, the grinding wheel must be

ring tested (refer to Page 23) and dressed (refer

to Page 28).

Note: Pay special attention to keep the dogs

If you lose any of the lock balls, it will be

impossible to continue this procedure until

they are replaced.

Figure 39. Wheel on balancing fixture.

5. Using a slightly-oiled lint free cloth, wipe the

mating surfaces of the balancing arbor and

the internal hub taper perfectly clean, then

push them together, as shown in Figure 41.

If ﬂood coolant was used with the grinding

wheel, run the machine with the grinding wheel

installed for 5-minutes to sling off any residual

coolant that may have settled to the low side of

the wheel. If the paper washers are missing, wet,

or damaged, replace them before proceeding. If,

during a period of machine operation, you find

that a finish is becoming poor, redress the wheel.

If that does not correct the problem, rebalance

your grinding wheel.

To balance the grinding wheel:

1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

2. Set up the wheel balancer as outlined in its

product user manual.

3. Remove the grinding wheel and hub as

a unit from the spindle as outlined in

Removing & Installing Grinding Wheel

Hub on Page 26.

7. Spin the wheel so it rotates one full turn and

comes to rest with the heaviest side hanging

down at six O'clock. This may take a few

times to ﬁnd the exact location.

11. Rotate the wheel to 90° degrees and release

it to observe the direction that the wheel

rotates out of balance. Move each "B" dog

toward one another and away from dog "A"

in 1° degree increments to balance out the

wheel.

8. Using a pencil, draw a line on the wheel at

the six O'clock position to mark the heaviest

side.

For example: depending on the amount of

balance correction, the distance between

the two "B" dogs will decrease, and the

distance between the "B" dogs and "A" dog

will increase. This step must be repeated as

many times as required until the wheel will

not rock back and forth by itself the heavy

spot.

9. Line up the closest dog with the line you

just drew and lock it in place. This dog will

now be positioned at the heaviest side of the

wheel and will be called dog "A".

10. Using the scale as a guide, position the other

two "B" dogs so they are both evenly spaced

120° degrees apart from the "A" dog. At this

point, all dogs will be 120° apart from one

another. "B" dogs will be the two dogs that

will be moved to balance out the location

that is out of balance.

12. When you are satisﬁed with the wheel

balance settings, install the grinding wheel

on the machine, and test run for ﬁve minutes

to verify the balance. If any problems are

detected, repeat the balancing procedure.

Note: Some machinists will re-dress the grinding

wheel one last time at this point to ensure

ultra-precision grinding results.

Magnetic Chuck

Setup for a Typical

The Model SB1029 table is equipped with a

T-slot for securing a magnetic chuck. Refer to

the magnetic chuck manufacturer's instruction

manual for proper preparation and mounting

techniques.

Grinding Operation

Once you have chosen the proper wheel for the

operation and properly installed the magnetic

chuck on the table, use the following procedures

to prepare for a grinding operation.

A magnetic chuck secures workpieces to the table

without the use of clamps. With proper attention

to preparation of both the workpiece and the

magnetic chuck, a magnetic chuck will provide

ample clamping force on most magnetic metals.

To prepare for a grinding operation:

1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

2. To ensure ﬂat mating surfaces on the

workpiece and the magnetic chuck, surface

grind and stone the top of the chuck and the

bottom of the workpiece. Clean all surfaces

to make sure they are free of contaminants.

Dust Port Positioning

The Model SB1029 has a dust port to gather

waste material created during grinding. The

dust port is vertically adjustable so that it can be

positioned directly in the path of the sparks.

3. Make sure the magnetic chuck is turned

OFF, then place the workpiece onto the

chuck. Once the workpiece is positioned as

needed, turn the magnetic chuck ON.

To adjust the dust port position:

1. Hold the dust port with one hand to prevent

it from moving, then loosen the lock knob

shown in Figure 42.

4. Make sure the grinding wheel is not

contacting the workpiece, connect the

grinder to power, then turn the motor ON.

Lock Knob

Grinder Operation

Grinding with a surface grinder is a delicate

process that takes practice, skill, and knowledge.

In addition to this, the method used for any one

procedure will depend on a number of factors,

including, but not limited to the material being

ground, the grinding wheel being used, the

quality and calibration of measuring tools, and

the finish that is desired.

For these reasons, specific techniques are not

outlined in this manual. We recommend that you

consult books, trade magazines, metalworking

experts, and other reliable resources for

techniques pertaining to the specific tasks you

wish to perform.

Figure 42. Dust port lock knob.

2. Position the dust port as needed, then re-

tighten the lock knob.

The information that follows serves as a general

outline to help familiarize you with the basic

grinding technique.

Using the Surface Grinder

Surfaced Portion

Workpiece

Grinding Wheel

Operation of the grinder is controlled through

the movement of the three handwheels. The

elevation handwheel controls the up and down

movement of the grinding head. It is this axis

that governs the amount of stock removal. Never

attempt to remove too much material in one

pass. The best results are achieved with multiple

light passes.

Surfaced Portion

The longitudinal travel handwheel rapidly moves

the table from left to right. This allows the

operator to move the workpiece back and forth

underneath the grinding wheel.

The cross travel handwheel controls the front-

to-back movement of the table and is only to be

used between longitudinal passes to expose a

new area of the workpiece to the grinding wheel.

Slightly overlap passes to ensure complete

coverage.

New Portion

When grinding, sweep the table back and forth

under the wheel in the longitudinal direction

until no further sparks emerge from the

workpiece, move the table in the cross direction

to expose a new portion of the workpiece to

the wheel, then take another sweep in the

longitudinal direction. Repeat this process until

the entire surface is ground. See Figure 43 for

an illustration of this process.

Electrical Safety Instructions

These pages are accurate at the time of printing. In the constant effort to improve, however, we may

make changes to the electrical systems of future machines. Study this section carefully. If you see

differences between your machine and what is shown in this section, call Technical Support at (360)

734-1540 for assistance BEFORE making any changes to the wiring on your machine.

1. Shock Hazard: It is extremely dangerous to

perform electrical or wiring tasks while the

machine is connected to the power source.

Touching electriﬁed parts will result in

personal injury including but not limited to

severe burns, electrocution, or death. For

your own safety, disconnect machine from

the power source before servicing electrical

components or performing any wiring tasks!

5. Circuit Requirements: Connecting the

machine to an improperly sized circuit will

greatly increase the risk of ﬁre. To minimize

this risk, only connect the machine to a

power circuit that meets the minimum

requirements given in this manual.

6. Capacitors/Inverters: Some capacitors and

power inverters store an electrical charge for

up to 10 minutes after being disconnected

from the power source. To reduce the risk of

being shocked, wait at least this long before

working on capacitors.

2. Wire Connections: All connections must be

tight to prevent wires from loosening during

machine operation. Double-check all wires

disconnected or connected during any wiring

task to ensure tight connections.

7. Wire/Component Damage: Damaged wires

or components increase the risk of serious

personal injury, ﬁre, or machine damage. If

you notice that any wires or components are

damaged while performing a wiring task,

replace those wires or components before

completing the task.

3. Modiﬁcations: Using aftermarket parts or

modifying the wiring beyond what is shown

in the diagram may lead to unpredictable

results, including serious injury or ﬁre.

4. Motor Wiring: The motor wiring shown

in these diagrams is current at the time of

printing, but it may not match your machine.
