230V Electrical Connection Instructions

CAUTION: This machine will operate only on AC frequency and on electrical voltage shown on the motor nameplate. Make sure you have the correct frequency and voltage before connecting the power cord to an outlet. The machine has a plug as shown below.

This machine must be connected to an electrically ground circuit in order to protect the operator from electric shock. This machine has an approved power cord with three conductors as well as a plug with three terminals. Connect the plug into a three holed receptacle. For maximum protection against electric shock, use a circuit that is protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter.

DANGER:

Electrocution could occur if the machine is exposed to water or rain. Keep the machine

 

in a dry building.

DANGER:

Electrocution could occur if machine is improperly connected to the electrical system. To

 

prevent possible electric shock, always use a 3-wire electrical system connected to an

 

electrical ground. For maximum protection against electrical shock, use a circuit that

 

is protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter. Consult your electrical contractor.

DANGER:

Electrocution could occur if the ground pin is tampered with in any way. Do not cut,

 

remove, or break the ground pin. Do not try to fit a three-terminal plug into a receptacle

 

or connector body other than a three plug receptacle or connector body. If the outlet does

 

not fit the plug, consult your electrical contractor.

DANGER:

Electrocution could occur if the machine is used with a damaged plug or power cord. If

 

the cords or plugs are worn or damaged in any way, have them replaced by an authorized

 

service person or electrician.
