OPERATION MANUAL
Place the machine near an existing power source. Make sure all power cords are protected from
traffic, material handling, moisture, chemicals, or other hazards. Make sure there is access to a
means of disconnecting the power source. The electrical circuit must meet the requirements for
240V. To minimize the risk of electrocution, fire, or equipment damage, these machines should
be connected directly to a power point.
NOTE : The use of an extension cord is not recommended as it may decrease the life of electrical
components on your machine.
3.4 ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Nominal Voltage.........................................240V
Cycle............................................................50 Hz
Phase...............................................Single Phase
Power Supply Circuit............................15 Amps
Full Load Current...............................12.8 Amps
(Full load current rating is also on the specification plate on the motor.)
The full-load current rating is the amperage a machine draws at when running at 100% of the
output power. Where machines have more than one motor, the full load current is the
amperage drawn by the largest motor or a total of all the motors and electrical devices that
might operate at one time during normal operations.
Full-Load Current Rating for these machine at 240V is 12.8 Amps
It should be noted that the full-load current is not the maximum amount of amps that the
machine will draw. If the machine is overloaded, it will draw additional amps beyond the
full-load rating and if the machine is overloaded for a long period of time, damage, overheating,
or fire may be caused to the motor and circuitry.
This is especially true if connected to an undersized circuit or a long extension lead. To reduce
the risk of these hazards, avoid overloading the machine during operation and make
sure it is connected to a power supply circuit that meets the requirements.
