POWER CONNECTIONS
A separate electrical circuit should be used for your machines. This circuit
should not be less than #12 wire and should be protected with a 15 Amp
time lag fuse. If an extension cord is used, use only 3-wire extension cords
which have 3-prong grounding type plugs and matching receptacle which will
accept the machine’s plug. Before connecting the machine to the power line,
make sure the switch (s) is in the “OFF” position and be sure that the electric
current is of the same characteristics as indicated on the machine. All line
connections should make good contact. Running on low voltage will damage
the machine.
Do not expose the machine to rain or operate the machine in damp locations.
MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS
Your machine is wired for 240V, 50 HZ alternating current.
Before connecting the machine to the power source, make
sure the switch is in the “OFF” position.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This machine must be grounded while in use to protect the
operator from electric shock.
1. All grounded, cord-connected machines:
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of
least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This
machine is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment-grounding
conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or
without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the
equipment-grounding conductor to a live terminal.
