440v conversion

440V Conversion

The Model G0646/G0647 can be converted for 440V operation. This conversion job consists of disconnecting the machine from the power source, changing the connections on the voltage transformer, replacing the overload relay, and rewiring the motor for 440V operation.

The necessary overload relay for this procedure can be purchased by calling Grizzly Customer Service at (800) 523-4777 and ordering Part Number P0646209-1.

All wiring changes must be inspected by a quali- fied electrician before the machine is connected to the power source. If, at any time during this pro- cedure you need help, call Grizzly Tech Support at (570) 546-9663.

To rewire the Model G0646/G0647 for 440V operation:

1.DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

2.Rotate the main power switch to OFF or "0" and the electrical cabinet door lock to the horizontal, then open the door to access the voltage transformer (see Figure 6).

3.At the voltage transformer, remove the wire labeled "S" that leads to the “220” terminal, and connect that wire to the “440” terminal (see Figure 7).

terminal of the voltage transformer.

4. Remove the overload relay and replace it with

the 440V version (Part Number P0646209-1).

Set the overload relay dial (see Figure 6) to

the value for your model:

 

Model G0646

7.5A

Model G0647

8A

5. Open the junction box on the motor, and

rewire the motor as shown on the diagram

located inside the motor junction box.

 

Note: The reference motor wiring diagram on

Page 56 was current at the time of printing,

but always use the wiring diagram provided

inside the motor junction box, as it will reflect

any changes to the motor shipped with your

For 440V connections, an electrician MUST hardwire the machine (using a metal con- duit setup) directly to a locking disconnect switch, which is directly connected to the power source.
