110V Operation
SAFETY
The Model W1704 is wired for 110V operation. Always con- nect this machine to a dedicated circuit (wire, breaker, plug, receptacle) with a verified ground, using the recom- mended circuit size and plugs/receptacles listed at the bottom of this page.
We recommend connecting this machine to a dedicated circuit with a verified ground, using the circuit size given below. 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 sup- plied 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 cir- cuit, you may create a fire or circuit overload hazard— consult a qualified electrician to reduce this risk.
Extension Cords
We do not recommend using an extension cord; however, if you have no alternative, use the following guidelines:
•Use a cord rated for Standard Service (S).
•Do not use a cord longer than 50 feet.
•Ensure that the cord has a ground wire and pin.
•Use the gauge size listed below as a minimum.
