3.5.3 Electrical machines
Electrical equipment can shock or cause an explosion if used near wet
or flammable materials. Do not operate the motor if it is wet or exposed
to combustible materials.
The motor rotation reverse switch must be operated only when the
motor is completely stopped. Failure to do so can damage the
equipment.
Do the following to connect the electrical power:
1. Check the power cords and plugs for damage. Repair or replace any if nec-
essary.
2. Plug the motor into the control box.
3. Connect the control box mains power cord to a grounded outlet of the cor-
rect voltage. 120V motors are rated at 20 amps full load; 230V motors are
rated at 11.5 amps full load.
3.5.4 Pneumatic machines
For your safety and protection, the
BB4500-BB5000 pneumatic sys-
tem has an air control valve with a
brightly colored oval handle (seen
in Figure 3-17) clearly indicating
the airflow direction.
Quick-disconnects between the
incoming air supply and the
machine enable the operator to
quickly disconnect the machine if
necessary.
The pneumatic conditioning unit (PCU) air filter and lubricator must be used to
protect the pneumatic system and maintain the machine warranty. The lubricator is
set to deliver oil at a rate of 20–30 drops per minute at full throttle.
If the machine stops moving unexpectedly, lock out the pneumatic
safety valve located at the filter lubricator assembly before performing
any troubleshooting.
