MS18H/MS18E MIXER — ELECTRIC MOTOR
Electric Motor
For maintenance care and operation of the electric motor, refer
to your electric motor instruction booklet furnished with the motor.
Protect the electric motor from dust as much as possible and
keep ventilating openings clean.
The electric motor used in this mixer is a single-phase 1.5 HP
motor. The input voltage requirement for this motor is either 115
or 230 VAC only.
Electric Motor Connection
A 12 inch electrical cable (Figure 2) with a pigtail at one end is
provided with the electrical motor for hookup to a power source.
Table 1. shows the required NEMA connector for the desired
motor horsepower rating. In addition, Table 2 also shows the
matching NEMA approved connector for the required extension
cord.
ALWAYS, make certain that the power source required for the
electric motor is
correct and always use the correct NEMA
configuration plug.
Failure to supply the correct voltage to the
motor can severely damage the motor.
The motor supplied is wired for 115 VAC grounded operation.
Make certain that the correct size grounded (3-wires) extension
cord is used. See Table 4.
Motors can burn out when the line voltage falls 10% below the
voltage rating of the motor. Failure to use proper voltage will
cause the motor to overheat and actuate the overload switch.
If overload protection should actuate because of improper voltage
or any other malfunction, turn the main switch on the motor to the
"OFF" position and correct the problem, press the reset switch
button, and turn the main switch to the "ON" position.
CAUTION:
■
DO NOT spray water at any time on the
electric motor.
■
DO NOT operate electric motor in a
explosive environment.
It is strongly recommended that all
electrical wiring be done by a
licensed
electrician. Special attention should be
given to the electric switch as well as
the over-and-under voltage protection devices as per regulations
set forth in the local electrical safety code handbook.
Electric Motor Voltage Switch
1.
ALWAYS make certain the motor switch is "OFF" and the
power cord has been disconnected from the power source.
2.
Remove the voltage lock-out bolt
(Figure 3). Change the
position of the
voltage change toggle switch from 115
VAC to 230 VAC. The mixer is factory wired for 115 VAC
operation.
3.
Replace the voltage lock-out bolt.
4.
Important!, when changing the input voltage to the motor
from 115 to 230 VAC the
plug on the motor power cord
must also be changed. See Table 3.
