DO NOT attempt to operate the mixer until the Safety, General Information and Inspection sections have been read and understood.

1.Before starting, make sure mixer is positioned on a secure flat surface to prevent rolling.

2.Use an extension cord (see Table 5) of adequate current carrying capacity, insert the electric motor's power plug into one end of the extension cord.

3.NEVER! use a worn or frayed extension cord.

4.NEVER! operate mixer withV-belt cover removed.

NOTE extension cord so that it lays flat and is not curled underneath the mixer.

5.Place the voltage selector switch (Figure 17) in the position thatisinaccordancewithvoltagelistedontheelectricmotor's nameplate. Theelectricmotor'sareshippedfromthefactory withthewiththevoltageselectorswitchplacedinthe115VAC position.

If 230VAC is required, remove the locking bolt and nut and flip the voltage selector toggle switch to the 230 VAC position. Reinstall the locking bolt and nut to prevent the toggle switch from being accidently tripped.

6.Plug the other end of the extension cord into either a 115 or 230 VAC power source (look at position of voltage selector switch). Remember to read the nameplate to determine the motor's input voltage requirement.

WARNING:

ALWAYS read the label on the electric motor before applying power.The label will indicate the correct power requirements for the motor. Remember the use of an incorrect input voltage will severely damage the electric motor.
