WARNING: IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT A PROFESSIONAL ELECTRICIAN BE CON-
TRACTED TO PERFORM THE POWER SOURCE HOOK-UP TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY
OR POSSIBLE DEATH.
The power supply for your Western pivot can be provided by either the electric utility company or by an
engine driven generator . The system requires 480 volts, 60 cycle, 3 phase electric power for operation .
The maximum operating voltage must not exceed 504 volts AC, nor should it be operated at less than 456
volts . Other voltage and 50 Hz power is available upon request .
If you intend to operate your pivot with an electric generator, be sure to consult with your Western Dealer
regarding generator specifications. A conventional generator may not be adequate to power your machine.
You should also thoroughly familiarize yourself with the grounding and lockout/tagout procedures set forth
in the Safety & Maintenance sections of this manual .
A Note on underground wire installation…
Western Corporation provides the electrical wiring used on the pivot itself, but the buyer will need to acquire
sufficient wiring to connect the pivot to its power source. All material must be new and not secondhand,
and must meet all applicable sections of the National Electric Code.
