PARTICLES, including wood dust, crystalline silica dust and asbestos dust. Direct particles away from face and body. Always operate tool in well ventilated area and provide for proper dust removal. Use dust collection system wherever possible. Exposure to the dust may cause serious and permanent respiratory or other injury, including silicosis (a serious lung disease), cancer, and death. Avoid breathing the dust, and avoid prolonged contact with dust.

Allowing dust to get into your mouth or eyes, or lay on your skin may promote absorption of harmful material. Always use properly fitting NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection appropriate for the dust exposure, and wash exposed areas with soap and water.

28. USE A PROPER EXTENSION CORD IN GOOD

CONDITION. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. The table at right shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate amperage rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the larger diameter of the extension cord. If in doubt of the proper size of an extension cord, use a shorter and thicker cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in a loss of power and overheating. USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION

CORD THAT HAS A 3-PRONG GROUNDING

PLUG AND A 3-POLE RECEPTACLE THAT

ACCEPTS THE TOOL’S PLUG.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

GUIDELINES FOR

EXTENSION CORDS

If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is marked with the suffix “W-A” (“W” in Canada) to indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

THIS TOOL MUST BE GROUNDED WHILE IN USE

TO PROTECT THE OPERATOR FROM ELECTRIC

SHOCK.

IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAK-

DOWN, grounding provides the path of least resistance for electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord that has an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug MUST be plugged into a matching electrical receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local codes and ordinances.

DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not fit the electrical receptacle, have the proper electrical receptacle installed by a qualified electrician.

IMPROPER ELECTRICAL CONNECTION of the equipment grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The conductor with the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment grounding conductor. DO NOT connect the equipment grounding conductor to a live terminal if repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary.

CHECK with a qualified electrician or service personnel if you do not completely understand the grounding instructions, or if you are not sure the tool is properly grounded.

USE ONLY A 3-WIRE EXTENSION CORD THAT HAS

A 3-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG AND A 3-POLE

RECEPTACLE THAT ACCEPTS THE TOOL’S PLUG.

REPLACE A DAMAGED OR WORN CORD IMMED-

IATELY.

This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an electrical receptacle as shown in FIGURE A. FIGURE A shows a 3-wire electrical plug and electrical receptacle that has a grounding conductor. If a properly grounded electrical receptacle is not available, an adapter as shown in FIGURE B can be used to temporarily connect this plug to a 2-contact ungrounded receptacle.

The adapter has a rigid lug extending from it that MUST be connected to a permanent earth ground, such as a properly grounded receptacle box. THIS ADAPTER IS

PROHIBITED IN CANADA.

CAUTION: In all cases, make certain the electrical receptacle in question is properly grounded. If you are not sure have a certified electrician check the electrical receptacle.

ONE-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY. MODELS COVERED IN THIS MANUAL, ARE WARRANTED TO THE ORIGINAL USER

AGAINST DEFECTS IN WORKMANSHIP OR MATERIALS UNDER NORMAL USE FOR ONE YEAR AFTER DATE OF

PURCHASE. ANY PART WHICH IS DETERMINED TO BE DEFECTIVE IN MATERIAL OR WORKMANSHIP AND RETURNED

SHIPPING COSTS PREPAID, WILL BE, AS THE EXCLUSIVE REMEDY, REPAIRED OR REPLACED AT OUR OPTION. FOR

LIMITED WARRANTY CLAIM PROCEDURES, SEE “PROMPT DISPOSITION” BELOW. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY GIVES

PURCHASERS SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS WHICH VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. TO THE EXTENT ALLOWABLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL AND

INCIDENTAL DAMAGES IS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED. LIABILITY IN ALL EVENTS IS LIMITED TO AND SHALL NOT EXCEED

THE PURCHASE PRICE PAID.

WARRANTY DISCLAIMER. A DILIGENT EFFORT HAS BEEN MADE TO PROVIDE PRODUCT INFORMATION AND

ILLUSTRATE THE PRODUCTS IN THIS LITERATURE ACCURATELY; HOWEVER, SUCH INFORMATION AND ILLUSTRATIONS

ARE FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF IDENTIFICATION, AND DO NOT EXPRESS OR IMPLY A WARRANTY THAT THE

PRODUCTS ARE MERCHANTABLE, OR FIT FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR THAT THE PRODUCTS WILL NECESSARILY

CONFORM TO THE ILLUSTRATIONS OR DESCRIPTIONS. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW, NO WARRANTY OR

AFFIRMATION OF FACT, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, OTHER THAN AS STATED IN THE “LIMITED WARRANTY” ABOVE IS

MADE OR AUTHORIZED.

Technical Advice and Recommendations, Disclaimer. Notwithstanding any past practice or dealings or trade custom, sales shall not include the furnishing of technical advice or assistance or system design. No obligations or liability on account of any unauthorized recommendations, opinions or advice as to the choice, installation or use of products shall be assumed for

SCHEPPACH MODELS.

Product Suitability. Many jurisdictions have codes and regulations governing sales, construction, installation, and/or use of products for certain purposes, which may vary from those in neighboring areas. While attempts are made to assure that

Scheppach products comply with such codes, Colovos cannot guarantee FOR SCHEPPACH MODELS compliance, and cannot be responsible for how the product is installed or used. Before purchase and use of a product, review the product applications, and all applicable national and local codes and regulations, and be sure that the product, installation, and use will comply with them.

Certain aspects of disclaimers are not applicable to consumer products; e.g., (a) some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you; (b) also, some jurisdictions do not allow a limitation on how long an implied warranty lasts, consequently the above limitation may not apply to you; and (c) by law, during the period of this Limited Warranty, any implied warranties of implied merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose applicable to consumer products purchased by consumers, may not be excluded or otherwise disclaimed.

Prompt Disposition. A good faith effort will be made for prompt correction or other adjustment with respect to any product which proves to be defective within limited warranty. For any product believed to be defective within limited warranty, first write or call dealer from whom the product was purchased. Dealer will give additional directions. If unable to resolve satisfactorily, write to the address below, giving dealer’s name, address, date, and number of dealer’s invoice, and describing the nature of the defect. Title and risk of loss pass to buyer on delivery to common carrier. If product was damaged in transit to you, file claim with carrier.
