CAUTION
 
 
Operating the Surface Grinder from a power 
source of improper voltage and/or amperage will 
result in unrepairable damage to the electric motor 
and related controls.  
 
5) Providing proper voltage  and  amperage levels to 
the electric motor is essential to obtain maximum 
productivity  and service life. Low voltage  and 
amperage levels will cause the motor to overheat. The 
motor is equipped with automatic thermal protection 
device that will stop it before major internal damage 
can result. After the motor has cooled to an acceptable 
temperature level, the switch must be manually 
activated to restart. FIGURE 21.

6) The FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER utilizes a 
factory supplied extension cord equipped with an 
integral GFI device.  The GFI device is intended to 
protect both the operator  and electric motor in the 
event  a ground fault is developed during operation. 
The extension cord is 37 foot (11 m) long, fabricated 
from 12 AWG wire and incorporates  a NEMA 5-15P 
plug  and  a NEMA L5-15R twist lock type receptacle. 
The twist clock feature allows the extension cord to be 
pulled by the FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER without 
becoming disconnected.  
 
 
DANGER
 
 
BEFORE USE, PROPERLY INSPECT THE 
EXTENSION CORD AND WIRING DEVICES FOR 
STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY. DO NOT UTILIZE A 
CORD WITH A WORN OR CUT OUTER JACKET 
MATERIAL. DO NOT UTILIZE A CORD WITH 
EXPOSED INNER WIRES OR INSULATION 
MATERIAL. DO NOT UTILIZE A CORD THAT HAS 
BEEN REPAIRED WITH ELECTRICAL TAPE. DO 
NOT UTILIZE A CORD WITH A CRACKED AND/OR 
DAMAGED GFI CASE. USE OF AN EXTENSION 
CORD OF IMPROPER STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY 
AND/OR DAMAGED GFI CAN RESULT IN 
PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL 
INJURY. 
 
DANGER
 
 
ALL ELECTRICAL WIRING, INCLUDING 
EXTENSION CORD GAUGE SIZE AND/OR 
LENGTH, MUST BE INSTALLED AND/OR 
APPROVED IN ACCORDANCE TO LOCAL 
ELECTRICAL CODES AND PRACTICES. AN 
IMPROPER WIRING INSTALLATION CAN RESULT 
IN PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL 
INJURY.  
 
7) Determine that the power source receptacle to be 
utilized is properly grounded. This can be 
accomplished with proper testing equipment and 
procedures. If there are  any questions regarding the 
suitability of a specific power receptacle, contact your 
dealer or our Customer Service Department for 
assistance BEFORE utilizing the FLOOR COVERING 
SCRAPER. There is no charge for this service. A 
qualified electrician may need to be consulted.  
 
 8) If additional extension cord length is required for a 
specific job application,  an  additional extension cord 
can be utilized in conjunction with an external GFI. 
Plug the receptacle of the additional extension cord 
into the factory supplied GFI. Plug the ground fault 
circuit interrupter into the power source receptacle. 
Connect the extension cord plug into the external GFI. 
This configuration will allow any fault over the length of 
a defective extension cord to be indicated.  Extension 
cord gauge size and length must conform to National 
Electric Code standards. 
 
DANGER
 
 
FOR MAXIMUM PROTECTION AGAINST A FAULT, 
ALWAYS CONFIGURE A GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT 
INTERRUPTER TO BE PLUGGED INTO THE 
POWER SOURCE RECEPTACLE.  A 
CONFIGURATION WITH THE GROUND FAULT 
CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER PLACED BETWEEN THE 
FLOOR COVERING SCRAPER AND THE POWER 
SOURCE RECEPTACLE WILL NOT AFFORD 
MAXIMUM PROTECTION AGAINST A POTENTIAL 
FAULT.
