INPUT POWER SUPPLY CONNECTIONS

A qualified electrician should connect the input power supply leads.

1.Follow all national and local electrical codes.

2.Use a three-phase line.

3.Remove the input access door at upper rear of the machine.

4.Follow input supply connection diagram located on the inside the door. For multiple voltage machines, follow the diagram for the voltage that is within 10% of your actual input line voltage.

5.Connect the three-phase AC power supply leads L1, L2, and L3 to the input contactor terminals in the input box assembly. See Figure A.1.

RECONNECT PROCEDURE

WARNING

Electric Shock Can Kill

Disconnect input power before perform- ing this procedure.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Multiple voltage machines are shipped connected to the highest input voltage listed on the machine’s rating plate. Before installing the machine, check that the reconnect panel in the input box assembly is connect- ed for the proper voltage.

CAUTION

Failure to follow these instructions can cause immedi- ate failure of components within the machine. When powering welder from a generator be sure to turn off welder first, before generator is shut down in order to prevent damage to welder.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

To reconnect a multiple voltage machine to a different voltage, remove input power and refer to the input connection diagram located on the inside of case back input access door. Follow the diagram for the voltage that is within 10% of your actual input line voltage.

1.Figure A.2 shows a sample of the reconnect instructions for a dual voltage machine.
