To reduce risk of serious burns, electrocu-
tion or death when installing this switch:
• Only use this switch to replace an existing
machine switch that has the same physi-
cal configuration and equivalent electrical
specifications/ratings.
• Installation must only be performed by an
electrician or qualified service personnel,
and all applicable electrical codes must
be adhered to.
• Turn off and completely disconnect all
power sources to the machine before
installing the switch.
• Do not use this switch in wet or damp
locations, or near explosive fumes or
flammable liquids. It is not sealed or rated

Disabling & Locking Switch
Figure 3. Switch disabled by a padlock.
The switch can be disabled and locked by insert-
ing a padlock through the ON/START button, as
shown. Locking the switch in this manner can
prevent unauthorized operation of the machine,
which is especially important if the machine is not
stored inside an access-restricted building.
IMPORTANT:
Locking the switch with a padlock
only restricts its function. It is not a substitute
for disconnecting power from the machine when
adjusting or servicing.

NOTICE
The padlock shaft diameter is important to
the disabling function of the switch. With
any padlock used to lock the switch, test
the switch after installation to ensure that it
is properly disabled.
Children or untrained people can be
seriously injured by this machine
. This
risk increases with unsupervised operation.
To help prevent unsupervised operation,
disable and lock the switch before leaving
machine unattended! Place key in a well-
hidden or secure location.

When installing the H8241 switch, use the wiring
diagram in Figure 2 to ensure proper wire con-

*The machine MUST be connected to a verified
ground. In the event of certain malfunctions or
breakdowns, grounding reduces the risk of elec-
tric shock by providing a path of least resistance
for electric current.
This switch is intended to be connected to
stranded wire with insulated quick-discon-
nect crimp-type female wire terminals hav-
ing a 1⁄4" tab.
All crimps must be "pull-checked" to ensure
that wires are securely crimped and will
not fall out with moderate tension or when
exposed to normal machine vibration.
