INSTALLATION
SITE S ELECTION
Select a solid, level surface to install the E-222 chopper. This area should be well lit and large
enough to allow easy access to all sides of the machine.
ELECTRICAL
Your E-222 chopper is manufactured with a 20-amp power cord and plug. Contact a licensed elec-
trician to install a 20-amp outlet. Do not try to modify a standard outlet to accommodate this plug.
Failure to use a correct outlet will void the warranty. Also, check that the line voltage matches the
motor specifications as shown on the serial plate.

TESTING PRIORTO O PERATION
1. Make sure the chopper is unplugged and is on a solid, level surface.
2. Check that the line voltage at the outlet matches the machine specifications.
3. Choose a knife and plate to install. (If you have just removed the chopper from its shipping
carton, it is greased and ready to run with a 1/8” plate from the factory.) The standard plate has
1/8” (3.2mm) holes. Optional plates are 3/16” (4.8mm), ¼” (6.3mm), and 3/8” (9.5mm). It is
recommended that a plate and knife should be matched and kept as a pair. They will wear evenly
and provide the best operation of the chopper.
CAUTION
Mixing knives and plates will cause them to
wear unevenly and possibly damage each other.
