Circuit Breaker Requirements
We recommend that the circuit you use your machine on should be dedicated. Because the machine motors are different sizes, please use the following guidelines when choosing a circuit breaker for your machine (circuit breakers rated any higher are not adequate to protect the cir- cuit):
Recommended Circuit Breaker | 10 Amp |
Your Circuit Capacity
Always check to see if the wires in your circuit are capable of handling the amperage load from your machine. If you are unsure, consult a qualified electrician.
If you operate this machine on any circuit that is already close to its capacity, it might blow a fuse or trip a circuit breaker. However, if an unusual load does not exist and a power failure still occurs, contact a qualified electrician or our Service Department at (570)
Serious personal injury could occur if you connect your machine to the power source before you have completed the assembly process. DO NOT connect the machine to the power source until instructed to do so.
