SECTION 3: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS

G1023Z

If the machine is not wired correctly a fire could result. Make sure your wiring, recep- tacle, plug, and circuit breaker can handle the current draw of the machine. If you are not sure that your electrical circuit can han- dle the current draw, get a qualified electri- cian to test your electrical system and do any required upgrades. DO NOT attempt to modify an existing circuit by only replacing the circuit breaker with one rated for a high- er amperage draw than the wiring, recepta- cle, and plug are rated for.

The motor supplied with the Model Z is a 3 HP 220V single-phase motor. Under normal 220V use, the motor draws approximately 18 amps. Use a 20 amp circuit breaker or a 20 amp slow- blow fuse for 220V operation.

The Model Z does not come with a plug. When operating at 220V, use a NEMA-style L6-20 plug and receptacle as shown in Figure 5.

The circuit you use should be dedicated, (i.e., the machine should provide the only draw from that circuit). If frequent circuit failures occur when using this machine, contact our Service Department or your local electrical contractor.
