done by qualified electrical personnel. Should you desire to
have your jointer converted for 240 volts, take your jointer to
your local Authorized Delta Service Center. Call 1-800-223-
7278 for the location of the nearest Authorized Service
Center. The Service Center will be able to convert your
jointer for 240 volts by (a) re-wiring the motor for 240 volts;
(b) installing a 240 volt attachment plug to the power supply
cord; and (c) replacing the single pole on/off switch shipped
with your jointer with a double pole switch.
The jointer with a 240 volt plug should only be connected to
an outlet having the same configuration as the plug
illustrated in Fig. C. No adapter is available or should be
used with the 240 volt plug.
AS A PRECAUTION IN ALL CASES,
MAKE CERTAIN THE RECEPTACLE IN
QUESTION IS PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE
NOT SURE, HAVE A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN CHECK
THE RECEPTACLE.

EXTENSION CORDS
Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire
extension cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s
plug. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. D-1 or D-2, shows
the correct gauge to use depending on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord.
