The 31A Sander is equipped with either a single phase 115/230 volt motor
The three phase sander is not equipped with a plug. You may either install a UL/CSA listed plug suitable for 230 or 460 volt operation, or “hard- wire” the sander directly to a service panel. The installer shall follow local regulations and National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70 installation requirements. If the Sander is to be
If connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use time delay fuse marked “D”.
Make sure the voltage of your power supply matches the specifications on the motor plate of the sander.

It is recommended that the three phase sander be connected to a dedicated 20 amp circuit (for 230V) or 10 amp circuit (for 460V) with circuit breaker or
NOTE: Local codes take precedence over recommendations.
Converting from 115 Volt to 230 Volt (Single Phase Only)
To convert from 115V to 230V (1 phase model), consult the diagrams inside the cover of the motor junction box, to determine how to switch the motor leads. A similar diagram is also found at the back of this manual.
The 115V attachment plug supplied with the sander must be replaced with a UL/CSA listed plug suitable for 230V operation. Contact your local authorized Powermatic service center or qualified electrician for proper procedures to install the plug. The sander must comply with all local and national codes after the 230 volt plug is installed.
