(Fig. 14)

Removal
1. Remove the dust cover and switch cover to expose the electrical connections of the power cord, ON/OFF switch, and wire cord. 2. Pull the power cord into the dust compartment in order to remove the strain relief (for power cord replacement) by prying or cutting, remove the wire connectors, and wire tie, if present. 3. Remove the ON/OFF switch (for ON/OFF switch replacement) by depressing the switch retaining tabs while pushing up out of the dust compartment at the same time. 4. Pull the power cord out of the dust compartment (for power cord replacement)

Installation
1. Insert the new power cord (power cord replacement only) into the dust compartment as far as necessary in order to place a new cord retainer in proper location on power cord. The proper location is approximately one and one eighth inches/thirty millimeters (1 1/8�/30 mm) of new power cord yellow outer jacket extending past the cord retainer. Attach wires with wire connectors according to the wiring diagram in the front of this manual. ONLY USE A NEW CORD RETAINER, DO NOT REUSE A CORD RETAINER. 2. For switch replacement only, insert the new ON/OFF switch with the numbers 1,2,3, facing toward you, into the dust compartment until secured by the retaining tabs. Use a wire tie with the part number listed in the C Block parts list and place it in the location shown in (Fig.14) taking care not to overtighten it. Tuck the wire connectors back into the dust compartment as shown in the close-up view in (Fig. 14). 3. Ensure that the Insulator Packing is installed correctly, (see Fig. 14). 4. Replace the switch cover, the two (2) switch cover screws, and the dust cover. Care should be taken not to pinch wires and make sure that the switch cover goes on easily and stays flat. If there is resistance to the switch cover lying flat and in place, stop, remove the cover and make sure that no wires are being pinched. DO NOT USE A POWER SCREWDRIVER TO SECURE THE COVER. NOTE: Any service involving the handle or switch cover area should be followed up with a dielectric or current leakage check of the unit. If you do not have the equipment or are not familiar with the test procedures, take the unit to an authorized servicer.
