SAFETY  
READ MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING MACHINE.  
FAILURE TO FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS BELOW WILL  
RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY.  
Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided, WILL  
result in death or serious injury.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, COULD  
result in death or serious injury.  
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, MAY  
result in minor or moderate injury.  
This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about proper  
operation of the equipment, and/or a situation that may cause damage  
to the machinery.  
NOTICE  
Standard Safety Instructions  
1. READ THROUGH THE ENTIRE MANUAL BEFORE STARTING MACHINERY. Machinery presents serious  
injury hazards to untrained users.  
2. ALWAYS USE ANSI APPROVED SAFETY GLASSES WHEN OPERATING MACHINERY. Everyday eye-  
glasses only have impact resistant lenses—they are NOT safety glasses.  
3. ALWAYS WEAR A NIOSH APPROVED RESPIRATOR WHEN OPERATING MACHINERY THAT PRODUCES  
DUST. Wood dust is a carcinogen and can cause cancer and severe respiratory illnesses.  
4. ALWAYS USE HEARING PROTECTION WHEN OPERATING MACHINERY. Machinery noise can cause  
permanent hearing damage.  
5. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. DO NOT wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings, or jewelry which may  
get caught in moving parts. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair and wear non-slip  
footwear.  
6. NEVER OPERATE MACHINERY WHEN TIRED, OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS OR ALCOHOL.  
Be mentally alert at all times when running machinery.  
7. ONLY ALLOW TRAINED AND PROPERLY SUPERVISED PERSONNEL TO OPERATE MACHINERY. Make  
sure operation instructions are safe and clearly understood.  
8. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. Keep all children and visitors a safe distance from the work  
area.  
9. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF. Use padlocks, master switches, and remove start switch keys.

W1816 Owner's Manual (Mfg. Since 10/09)  
10. NEVER LEAVE WHEN MACHINE IS RUNNING. Turn power OFF and allow all moving parts to come to  
a complete stop before leaving machine unattended.  
11. DO NOT USE IN DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. DO NOT use machinery in damp, wet locations, or  
where any flammable or noxious fumes may exist.  
12. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN AND WELL LIT. Clutter and dark shadows may cause accidents.  
13. USE A GROUNDED EXTENSION CORD RATED FOR THE MACHINE AMPERAGE. Undersized cords over-  
heat and lose power. Replace extension cords if they become damaged. DO NOT use extension cords  
for 220V machinery.  
14. ALWAYS DISCONNECT FROM POWER SOURCE BEFORE SERVICING MACHINERY. Make sure switch is  
in OFF position before reconnecting.  
15. MAINTAIN MACHINERY WITH CARE. Keep blades sharp and clean for best and safest performance.  
Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.  
16. MAKE SURE GUARDS ARE IN PLACE AND WORK CORRECTLY BEFORE USING MACHINERY.  
17. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Make a habit of checking for keys and adjusting  
wrenches before turning machinery ON.  
18. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS BEFORE USING MACHINERY. Check for binding and alignment of  
parts, broken parts, part mounting, loose bolts, and any other conditions that may affect machine  
operation. Repair or replace damaged parts.  
19. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Refer to the instruction manual for recommended accessories.  
The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury.  
20. DO NOT FORCE MACHINERY. Work at the speed for which the machine or accessory was designed.  
21. SECURE WORKPIECE. Use clamps or a vise to hold the workpiece when practical. A secured  
workpiece protects your hands and frees both hands to operate the machine.  
22. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.  
23. MANY MACHINES WILL EJECT THE WORKPIECE TOWARD THE OPERATOR. Know and avoid condi-  
tions that cause the workpiece to "kickback."  
24. ALWAYS LOCK MOBILE BASES (IF USED) BEFORE OPERATING MACHINERY.  
25. BE AWARE THAT CERTAIN DUST MAY BE HAZARDOUS to the respiratory systems of people and  
animals, especially fine dust. Make sure you know the hazards associated with the type of dust you  
will be exposed to and always wear a respirator approved for that type of dust.

Additional Safety for Dust Collectors  
READ and understand this  
entiremanualbeforeusing  
this machine. Serious per-  
sonal injury may occur  
if safety and operational  
information is not under-  
stood and followed. DO  
NOT risk your safety by  
not reading!  
USE this and other machinery with caution  
and respect. Always consider safety first,  
as it applies to your individual working  
conditions. No list of safety guidelines can  
be complete—every shop environment is  
different. Failure to follow guidelines could  
result in serious personal injury, damage  
to equipment or poor work results.  
1. IMPELLER/INLET SAFETY: Do not place your hands or tools near the open inlet during operation  
for any reason. The power suction of the rotating impeller could cause accidental contact,  
resulting in serious personal injury or damage to the machine.  
2. MACHINE USE: The machine is intended to only collect wood dust and chips. Do not use the dust  
collector as a vacuum or with machines producing dust/chips from metal, asbestos products, lead  
paint, silica, or any products that are not natural wood or man-made products manufactured from  
wood fiber, such as plywood or particle boards.  
3. WEAR RESPIRATOR: This machine may blow fine dust particles into the air during operation  
causing a hazard to the lungs. Always wear an ANSI approved respirator during dust collector  
operation and for a short time after as the dust settles.  
4. SUSPENDED DUST PARTICLES & IGNITION SOURCES: Do not operate the dust collector in areas  
where dust explosion risks are high, such as near pilot lights or open flames.  
5. ALLERGIC REACTION: Be aware that certain woods may cause an allergic reaction in people and  
animals, especially when exposed to fine dust. To avoid an allergic reaction, make sure you know  
what type of wood dust you will be exposed to.  
6. AVOIDING FIRES: Do not allow metal particles to strike the impeller! This may produce a spark,  
which can smolder in the wood dust for a long time before the fire or flame is detected. If you  
accidentally collect metal during operation, immediately turn the dust collector OFF, disconnect it  
from power, and wait for the impeller to stop. Then, remove the collection bags and empty them  
into an approved air-tight metal container. Prevent any chance of accidental collection of metal  
again before resuming operations.  
7. EMPTYING DUST: When emptying dust from the collection bags, wear an ANSI approved respirator  
and safety glasses to avoid lung or eye hazards caused by fine dust. Empty the dust away from  
ignition sources and into an approved container, then dispose of it properly.  
8. SAFE MAINTENANCE & SERVICE: Disconnect the dust collector from power and allow the impeller  
to come to a complete stop on its own before performing maintenance, service, adjustments, or  
emptying collection bags.

Machine Placement  
Mounting to Shop  
Floor  
Floor Load: This machine distributes a  
heavy load in a small footprint. Some  
residential floors may require additional  
bracing to support both machine and  
operator.  
Although not required, we recommend  
that you mount your new machine to the  
floor. Because this is an optional step and  
floor materials may vary, floor mounting  
hardware is not included.  
Lighting: Lighting should be bright enough  
to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain.  
We also recommend that you use a  
precision level to level your dust collector  
for smooth operation of the motor and  
impeller.  
Electrical: Electrical circuits must be  
dedicated or large enough to handle  
amperage requirements. Outlets must be  
located near each machine, so power or  
extension cords are clear of high-traffic  
areas. Follow local electrical codes for  
proper installation of new lighting, outlets,  
or circuits.  
Bolting to Concrete Floors  
Anchor studs and lag screws and anchors  
(Figure 6) are two popular methods for  
anchoring an object to a concrete floor.  
We suggest you research the many options  
and methods for mounting your machine  
and choose the best that fits your specific  
application.  
USE helpers or power lift-  
ing equipment to lift this  
dust collector. Otherwise,  
serious personal injury  
may occur.  
Anchor Stud  
MAKE your shop “child  
safe.Ensure that your  
workplace is inaccessible  
to children by closing and  
locking all entrances when  
you are away. NEVER allow  
untrained visitors in your  
shop when assembling,  
adjusting or operating  
equipment.  
Lag Screw and Anchor  
Figure 6. Typical fasteners for mounting to  
concrete floors.  
NOTICE  
Anchor studs are stronger and more  
permanent alternatives to lag shield  
anchors; however, they will stick out of  
the floor, which may cause a tripping  
hazard later if you decide to move  
your machine.

Assembly  
NOTICE  
Using air tools to tighten the fasteners in the  
assembly of your dust collector may crack or chip the  
paint because of their high torque. We recommend  
that you use hand tools or an electric tool with a low  
clutch setting.  
The safest and most efficient method of assembling your  
dust collector is to turn the blower housing assembly  
upside down and attach the parts upward, as instructed  
in the following steps.  
Tools & Items Needed

To assemble your dust collector, do these steps:  
Tape  
1. After removing the crate from the shipping pallet,  
set the smaller items aside in a safe location.  
2. With help from other people, place the blower  
housing assembly upside down on two saw horses  
that are at least 18" from the floor and that can fully  
support the weight (see Figure 7 for an example).  
Note: Take care not to damage the attached switch  
assembly and electrical cords as you turn the blower  
housing assembly over, and make sure that the  
motor is not supporting any weight.

E. Power Light: Indicates when there is power flowing  
to the magnetic switch.  
The remote control for the Model W1816  
(see Figure 33) uses infrared (IR) to  
communicate with the magnetic switch  
rather than radio frequency (RF). This  
prevents accidental startup of the dust  
collector by other common devices that  
use radio frequencies, such as garage door  
openers. Because the remote control must  
have a direct line-of-sight path between  
the devices, you must point the remote  
control directly at the switch to make it  
operate.  
F. Run Light: Illuminates when the dust collector motor  
is operating.  
G. Start Switch: Enables/disables the power flow to the  
magnetic switch and must turned ON before using  
ON/OFF button.  
H. Overload Light: Turns ON when the dust collector is  
overloaded and the motor has stopped.  
Note: If the overload light illuminates and the motor  
stops, you must disconnect the machine from power  
and allow the motor to cool. The overload relay  
should reset automatically and the light will go out.  
If you plan on placing your dust collector  
in a different room or outside of your  
shop, you must mount the switch in the  
shop and wire it through the wall to the  
dust collector to make use of the remote  
control.  
If this is a persistent problem, open the magnetic  
switch and make sure the amperage dial on the face  
of the overload relay is set at 25 (refer the Wiring  
Diagram illustration on Page 41 for location). If  
necessary, resolve any other cause of the problem  
(refer to the Troubleshooting section on Page 39 for  
additional help).  
Note: The remote control requires two AA  
batteries for operation.

Ducting Materials  
You have many choices regarding main line and branch  
line duct material. For best results, use metal duct for  
the main line and branch lines, then use a short length  
of flexible hose to connect each machine to the branch  
lines.  
Plastic duct is also a popular material for home shops.  
However, be aware that there is a fire or explosion hazard  
if plastic duct material is used for dust collection without  
being grounded against static electrical charge build-up.  
This topic will be discussed later in the manual. Another  
problem with using plastic is that it is less efficient per  
foot than metal.  
Metal Duct  
Advantages of metal duct (see Figure 34) is its  
conductivity and that it does not contribute to static  
electrical charge build-up. However, static charges are  
still produced when dust particles strike other dust  
particles as they move through the duct. Since metal duct  
is a conductor, it can be grounded quite easily to dissipate  
any static electrical charges.  
There are quite a number of options when it comes to  
metal duct, but metal duct that is specially manufactured  
for dust collection is the best choice. When selecting  
your metal duct, choose high quality metal duct with  
smooth welded internal seams that will minimize airflow  
resistance. This type of duct usually connects to other  
ducts or elbows with a simple, self-sealing clamps, is very  
quick and easy to assemble, and can be dismantled and  
re-installed with no problems. This is especially important  
if you ever need to change things around in your shop or  
add more tools.  
Figure 34. Examples of metal duct.  
Avoid inferior metal duct that requires you to cut it to  
length and snap it together. This type of duct is time  
consuming to install because it requires you to seal all  
the seams with silicone and screw the components on  
the ends with sheet metal screws. Another disadvantage  
is the rough internal seams and crimped ends that  
unavoidably increase static pressure.

W1816 Owner's Manual (Mfg. Since 10/09)  
Flexible Duct  
Flexible hose is generally used for short runs, small shops  
and at rigid duct-to-tool connections. There are many  
different types of flex hose on the market today. These  
are manufactured from materials such as polyethylene,  
PVC, cloth hose dipped in rubber and even metal,  
including steel and aluminum.  
The superior choice here is metal flex hose (see  
Figure 35) that is designed to be flexible, yet be as  
smooth as possible to reduce static pressure loss.  
There are also many kinds of pure plastic flexible hose,  
such as non-perforated drainage type hose and dryer vent  
hose. Drainage type hose, while being economical, does  
not quite have the flexibility required for dust collection.  
The inside of the duct is also deeply corrugated and  
can increase the static pressure loss by as much as 50%  
over smooth wall duct. Dryer vent hose, while being  
completely flexible, is non-resistant to abrasion and has  
a tendency to collapse in a negative pressure system. We  
DO NOT recommend using dryer vent hose in your dust  
collection system.  
Figure 35. Example of a metal flexible  
duct.  
If using flex-hose, you should choose one of the many  
types that are designed specifically for the movement  
of solid particles, i.e. dust, grains and plastics. However,  
the cost of specifically designed flexible duct can vary  
greatly. Polyethylene hose is well suited for the removal  
of particulate matter, especially sawdust, since it is  
durable and completely flexible. Polyethylene is also very  
economical and available in a wide variety of diameters  
and lengths for most applications.  
Plastic Duct  
The popularity of plastic duct (see Figure 36) is due to  
the fact that it is an economical and readily available  
product. It is also simple to assemble and easily sealed  
against air loss. The primary disadvantage of plastic  
duct for dust collection is the inherent danger of static  
electrical build-up.

System Design  
Step 1: Decide Who Will Design  
For most small-to-medium sized shops, you can design  
and build the dust collection system yourself without  
hiring engineers or consultants. We have included some  
information here to get you started on a basic design.  
If you have a large shop or end up designing a  
complicated system, then we recommend that you do  
additional research beyond this manual, or that you seek  
the help of an expert.  
Dust Collector  
Step 2: Sketch Your Shop Layout  
When designing a successful dust collection system,  
planning is the most important step. In this step, you  
must sketch a basic layout of your shop.  
Figure 37. Example of initial shop layout  
sketch.  
Your sketch only needs the basic details of the shop  
layout, similar to Figure 37, including all your current/  
planned machines and your planned placement of the  
dust collector.

Step 3: Sketch a Basic Duct Layout  
For the next step, sketch how you will connect your  
machines to the dust collector. Consider these general  
guidelines for an efficient system:  
Main  
Line Duct  
1. Machines that produce the most saw dust should be  
placed nearest to the dust collector (i.e. planers and  
sanders).  
Figure 38. Example of a good basic duct

the shortest possible main line and secondary  
branch ducts. See Figures 38–39 for ideas of good  
duct layouts versus bad duct layouts.

W1816 Owner's Manual (Mfg. Since 10/09)  
3. Directional changes should be kept to a minimum.  
The more directional change fittings you use directly  
increases the overall resistance to airflow.  
4. Gradual directional changes are more efficient than  
sudden directional changes (i.e. use the largest  
corner radius possible when changing hose or pipe  
direction).  
5. Each individual branch line should have a blast gate  
immediately after the branch to control suction from  
one machine to another.  
6. The simpler the system, the more efficient and less  
costly it will be.  
Step 4: Determine CFM of Each Machine  
Since each machine produces a different amount of  
sawdust, the requirements for the minimum amount of air  
flow or CFM (cubic feet per minute) to move that sawdust  
is unique to the machine (for example, a planer produces  
more sawdust than a table saw). Knowing this required  
CFM is important to gauging which size of duct to use.  
The chart in Figure 40 will give you a close estimation  
of the airflow your machine requires. Keep in mind that  
machines that generate the most sawdust should be  
placed closest to the dust collector. If the machine has  
multiple dust ports, the total CFM required is the sum of  
all ports.

Determining Main Line Duct Diameter  
The general rule of thumb for a main line duct is that the  
velocity of the airflow must not fall below 3500 FPM.  
Use the inlet size of the dust collector as a starting point  
for the main line. Neck the main line down 1" for every  
10' of length. This will usually keep the air velocity above  
3500 FPM and, depending on your system, will allow you  
to keep multiple branches open at one time.  
Mark your drawing as in Figure 43, but using the inlet size  
for your dust collector as the main line.

Determining Branch Line Duct Diameter

For small/medium sized shops, using the dust port size  
from the machine as the branch line duct size will achieve  
the correct velocity in most applications. However, if the  
dust port on the machine is smaller than 4", make the  
branch line 4" and neck the line down right before the  
dust port.

Calculating Duct Resistance  
Adding duct work, elbows, branches and any other  
components to a duct line increases airflow resistance  
(static pressure loss). This resistance can be minimized by  
using rigid (smooth) pipe and gradual curves, as opposed  
to flexible pipe and 90˚ elbows.

To help you think about this resistance, imagine riding a  
bicycle in a tunnel that is an exact replica of your duct  
work. If the inside of the tunnel is very bumpy (flexible  
pipe) and has a lot of sharp turns (90˚ elbows), it will take  
a lot more effort to travel from one end to the other.

In most small/medium shops it is only necessary to  
calculate the line with the longest duct length or the  
most fittings (operating under the assumption that if the  
line with the highest resistance works, the others will be  
fine).  
To calculate the static pressure of any given line in the  
system, do these steps:  
1. Make a list of each size duct in the line, including  
the length, and multiply those numbers by the static  
pressure value given in Figure 46.  
Additional Factors

quantity (if more than one) by the static pressure  
loss given in Figure 46.

don't end up with a system that only works right  
when the filter is clean.

Note: When calculating static pressure loss to determine  
if multiple lines can be left open at the same time,  
only include the main line numbers once.  
5. Compare the total static pressure loss for that line  
to the closest CFM given in the Performance Curve  
section on the Machine Data Sheet for your dust  
collector on Page 4.  
Example: The Model W1816 Data Sheet  
Performance Curve is illustrated in Figure 49.  
Find 4.4 on the Static Pressure axis (the amount of  
total static pressure loss calculated in Figure 48),  
then refer to the closest value on the CFM axis—  
approximately 1380 CFM.

— If the CFM for your static pressure loss is below  
the requirement of the machine, then that line  
will not effectively collect the dust. You must then  
modify some of the factors in that line to reduce  
the static pressure loss. Some of the ways to do  
this include: 1) Installing larger duct, 2) reducing  
amount of flexible duct used, 3) increasing  
machine dust port size, 4) moving machine closer  
to dust collector to eliminate duct length, and 5)  
reducing 90˚ elbows or replacing them with 45˚

System Grounding  
Since plastic hose is abundant, relatively inexpensive,  
easily assembled and air tight, it is a very popular  
material for conveying dust from woodworking machines  
to the dust collector. However, plastic flex-hose  
and plastic duct are an insulator, and dust particles  
moving against the walls of the plastic duct create a  
static electrical build up. This charge will build until  
it discharges to a ground. If a grounding medium is  
not available to prevent static electrical build up, the  
electrical charge will arc to the nearest grounded source.  
This electrical discharge may cause an explosion and  
subsequent fire inside the system.  
ALWAYS guard against static electrical  
build-up by properly grounding all dust  
collection lines.  
To protect against static electrical build up inside a non-  
conducting duct, a bare copper wire should be placed  
inside the duct along its length and grounded to the dust  
collector. You must also confirm that the dust collector  
is continuously grounded through the electrical circuit to  
the electric service panel.  
Plastic Blast  
Gate  
If you connect the dust collector to more than one  
machine by way of a non-conducting branching duct  
system and blast gates, the system must still be  
grounded as mentioned above. We recommend inserting  
a continuous bare copper ground wire inside the entire  
duct system and attaching the wire to each grounded  
woodworking machine and dust collector.  
Copper  
Ground  
Wire  
Metal Duct  
Be sure that you extend the bare copper wire down all  
branches of the system. Do not forget to connect the  
wires to each other with wire nuts when two branches  
meet at a “Y” or “T” connection.  
Figure 50. Jumper wire connected to both  
sides of a plastic blast gate and metal  
ducts.  
Ensure that the entire system is grounded. If using plastic  
blast gates to direct air flow, the grounding wire must be  
jumped (see Figure 50) around the blast gate without  
interruption to the grounding system.  
Flex  
Hose  
Ground  
Screw  
We also recommend wrapping the outside of all plastic  
ducts with bare copper wire to ground the outside of the  
system against static electrical build up. Wire connections  
at Y’s and T’s should be made with wire nuts.  
Attach the bare ground wire to each stationary  
External Ground Wire  
Internal Ground Wire  
woodworking machine and attach to the dust collector  
frame with a ground screw as shown in Figure 51. Ensure  
that each machine is continuously grounded to the  
grounding terminal in your electric service panel.

MAINTENANCE  
General  
Regular maintenance on your machine will ensure its  
optimum performance. Make a habit of inspecting your  
machine each time you use it.  
Check for the following conditions and repair or  
replace when necessary:  
Loose mounting bolts.  
Worn switch.  
Worn or damaged cords and plugs.  
Any other condition that could hamper the safe  
operation of this machine.  
MAKE SURE that your machine is  
unplugged during all maintenance pro-  
cedures! If this warning is ignored,  
serious personal injury may occur.  
Emptying Drum  
Empty the collection drum when it is no more than 34  
full. If the drum is overfilled, dust will be sucked into the  
inlet cylinder and pass through to the filter.  
Lubrication  
Since all bearings are sealed and  
permanently lubricated, simply leave them  
alone until they need to be replaced. Do  
not lubricate them.  
How quickly the drum will fill up is based on the type of  
work being done at that time.  
A machine that produces fine dust, such as a sander or  
table saw, will slowly fill the drum.  
A machine that produces curly shavings, such as a planer  
or jointer, will quickly fill the drum.  
In the beginning, check your drum regularly to get an idea  
of how often it needs to be emptied.

Removing Canister Filter  
The canister filter assemblies can be easily removed for  
replacing or cleaning.  
Tools Needed  
Qty  
Wrench or Socket 12mm.......................................1  
To remove a canister filter, do these steps:  
1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!  
2. Remove the bag clamp and the collection bag from  
the canister bottom.  
3. With the help of another person to support the  
canister filter, remove the hex bolt and fender  
washer from the center shaft shown in Figure 52.  
4. Slide the filter off the cleaning assembly, making  
sure not to damage the cleaning flaps.  
Note: The upper filter seal that mates with the  
blower housing assembly is very tight. It may be  
necessary to wiggle the filter back and forth with a  
downward pressure to remove it.  
Hex Bolt  
& Fender Washer  
To replace the canister filter, perform the above steps in  
reverse.  
Figure 52. Hex bolt and fender washer  
that secure the canister filter.  
Cleaning Canister Filter  
NOTICE  
Your cyclone dust collector is equipped with easy-to-use  
canister filter cleaning mechanisms that are controlled  
by the cleaning handles on the tops of the canisters (see  
Figure 53). To clean the filters, rotate the cranks 3–4  
revolutions to knock the caked dust from the inside filter  
pleats into the attached collection bag.  
To avoid damaging the filter fabric, do  
notleaveitinthesunorusecompressed  
air in the cleaning process.  
Cleaning Handle  
Empty the canister collection bag when it is no more than  
3

full. If the bag becomes overfilled, the dust collector  
will become ineffective in removing the fine dust from  
the lines.  
Rinsing Canister Filter  
For a thorough cleaning, the filter can be removed and  
rinsed off. However, make sure to clean the filter with the  
cleaning mechanisms first. Allow the filter to air dry, but  
do not leave it out in the sun or use compressed air—both  
could damage the filter fabric.

Electrical Safety Instructions  
These pages are current at the time of printing. However, in the spirit of improvement, we may  
make changes to the electrical systems of future machines. Study this diagram carefully. If you notice  
differences between your machine and these wiring diagrams, call Woodstock International Technical  
Support at (360) 734-3482.  
1. SHOCK HAZARD. Working on wiring that is  
connected to a power source is extremely  
dangerous. Touching electrified parts will  
result in personal injury including but not  
limited to severe burns, electrocution,  
or death. Disconnect the power from  
the machine before servicing electrical  
components!  
5. MOTOR WIRING. The motor wiring shown  
in these diagrams is current at the time  
of printing, but it may not match your  
machine. Always use the wiring diagram  
inside the motor junction box.  
6. 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.  
2. QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN. Due to the  
inherent hazards of electricity, only a  
qualified electrician should perform wiring  
tasks on this machine. If you are not a  
qualified electrician, get help from one  
before attempting any kind of wiring job.  
7. CAPACITORS/INVERTERS. Some capacitors  
and power inverters store an electrical  
charge for up to five minutes after being  
disconnected from the power source. To  
avoid being shocked, wait at least this long  
before working on these components.  
3. 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.  
8. ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS. You MUST  
follow the electrical requirements at the  
beginning of this manual when connecting  
your machine to a power source.
