American Sanders Operator's Manual - CAV 26
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To operate this machine follow these procedures:
1. Position the CAV 26 in a convenient location near
a wall outlet and within reach of the working area.
If the surface is not level, set the brakes on the
casters.
CAUTION: Do not use an extension cord with
the CAV 26 or you will experience a loss in
performance. Should an extension cord be
necessary, use one sized 12 AWG and no
longer than 50' in length. An extension cord
sized smaller than 12 AWG or greater than 50'
in length will overheat and potentially cause a
fire.
2. Connect the CAV 26 to a wall outlet matching one
of the two shown in figure 5. No adaptor should be
used with this appliance.
WARNING: This appliance must be grounded.
Should an electrical malfunction occur, the
grounding conductors provide a path to
harmful current. Do not connect this
appliance to any other wall outlet than one of
those shown in figure 5. Consult an
electrician if there is reason to doubt that the
wall outlet is not wired correctly. Do not
remove the grounding pin on the power cord.
Do not use this appliance with a damaged
power cord or plug.
3. The CAV 26 uses three individually activated
vacuum motors that allow tailoring the delivery for
the available electrical supply and application.
For Light Duty Applications:
Activate one of the three vacuums. To activate a
vacuum motor, push one of the three vacuum motor
switches (see figure 6). To deactivate the vacuum
motor, push the vacuum switch a second time.
For Heavy Duty Applications or Multiple
Simultaneous Users:
Activate two of the vacuum motors if you are
connected to a 15A wall outlet. You may activate
all three vacuum motors if you are connected to a
20A wall outlet.
WARNING: Do not activate all three vacuum
motors if you are connected to a 15A wall
outlet or you will overload the circuit. An
overloaded circuit will overheat and
potentially cause a fire. Always deactivate the
vacuum motor(s) before disconnecting the
power cord.
