Levelers
Check the planer for level by placing a bubble level
on main table. If adjustment is needed, rotate any of
the four leveling pads beneath the cabinet corners.
Tighten the hex nuts up against the cabinet to
secure the setting.

Electrical connections
The JWP-15B and JWP-15BHH are prewired for
230V power only. The planer comes with a plug
designed for use on a circuit with a
grounded outlet
that looks like the one pictured in Figure 6-1.
Before connecting to power source, be sure switch
is in
off
position.
It is recommended that the planer be connected to
a dedicated 15 amp circuit with circuit breaker or
time-delay fuse marked “D”.
Local codes take
precedence over recommendations.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
1. All Grounded, Cord-connected Tools:
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance for
electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This tool is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching
outlet 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
outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an outer surface
that is green with or without yellow stripes is the
equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is
necessary, do not connect the equipment-grounding
conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified
electrician or service pe
r
sonnel if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if
in doubt as to whether the tool is properly
grounded. Failure to comply may cause serious
or fatal injury.
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong
grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept
the tool's plug.
Repair or replace damaged or worn cord
immediately.
2. Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use
on a supply circuit having a nominal rating between
150 - 250 volts
, inclusive:
This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an
outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Figure 6-
1. The tool has a grounding plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in Figure 6-1. Make sure the tool is
connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adapter is available or
should be used with this tool. If the tool must be
reconnected for use on a different type of electric
circuit, the reconnection should be made by
qualified service personnel; and after reconnection,
the tool should comply with all local codes and
ordinances.

Extension cords
The use of extension cords is discouraged; try to
position equipment within reach of the power
source. If an extension cord becomes necessary, be
sure it is heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
Table 2 shows recommended size to use depending
on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the
gauge number, the heavier the cord.
