SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
220V Single-Phase
Serious personal injury could occur if you connect the machine to the power source before you have completed the set up pro- cess. DO NOT connect the machine to the power source until instructed to do so.
Before placing the machine, consider the avail- ability and proximity of an adequate power supply circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet the requirements for this machine, a new circuit must be installed. To minimize the risk of electrocution, fire, or equipment damage, we strongly recom- mend that you use a qualified electrician to install a new power supply circuit.
Full Load Amperage Draw
This machine draws the following amps under maximum load:
Amp Draw | 23 Amps |
Power Supply Circuit Requirements
The power supply circuit for your machine MUST be grounded and rated for the amperage given below. Never replace a circuit breaker on an exist- ing circuit with one of higher amperage without consulting a qualified electrician to ensure compli- ance with wiring codes. If you are unsure about the wiring codes in your area or you plan to connect your machine to a shared circuit, con- sult a qualified electrician.
Minimum Circuit Size | 30 Amp |
Power Connection Device
The type of plug required to connect your machine to power depends on the type of service you cur- rently have or plan to install. We recommend using the plug shown in Figure 2.
