DO NOT work on your electrical system
if you are unsure about electrical
codes and wiring! Seek assistance from
a qualified electrician. Ignoring this
warning can cause electrocution, fire,
or machine damage.
ELECTRICAL
220V Operation
The Model W1766 is wired for 220V operation. We
recommend connecting this machine to a dedicated
circuit with a verified ground, using the circuit size below
as a minimum. Never replace a circuit breaker with one of
higher amperage without consulting a qualified electrician
to ensure compliance with wiring codes.
This machine must be grounded! The electrical cord
supplied with this machine comes with a grounding pin. If
your outlet does not accommodate a ground pin, have it
replaced by a qualified electrician.
If you are unsure about the wiring codes in your area
or you plan to connect your machine to a shared
circuit, you may create a fire or circuit overload
hazard—consult a qualified electrician to reduce this
risk.
