A fire may occur if your particular electrical configuration does not comply with local and state codes. The best way to ensure compli- ance is to check with your local municipality or a qualified electrician.
Because of the high amperage draw from this machine, we recommend that you hardwire it directly to your circuit breaker and install a locking

high current plugs and receptacles.
Phase Converter
with G0450
When using a phase converter, the power from the manufactured power leg (sometimes called the wild wire) can fluctuate. Connect the manu- factured power leg to the L2 terminal to prevent damage to the transformer. The wire from the L2 terminal can handle some fluctuation because it goes directly to the motor. The power going to the L1 and L3 terminals goes to the controls and must be consistent to prevent damage.
