During
Converting from 230 Volt to 460 Volt (Three Phase Only)
To convert from 230 volt to 460 volt:
1.Remove the four Phillips head screws on the switch plate (Figure 8) and tilt the switch plate down. Then remove the hex nuts and washers from the two screws at the center, with an 8mm wrench. Pull the switch plate off the screws and away from the switch box. This will allow access to the switch box.
2.With the switch box tilted down, as shown in Figure 9, loosen the screw at each end and pull off the cover of the switch box.
3.In the switch box, change the position of the fuse from the 230 volt position to the 460 volt position. See diagrams on pages 56 and 57. When finished, replace cover and
4.Change the wiring in the junction box on the Band Saw motor, in accordance with the diagrams on pages 56 and 57.
5.If using a plug, install a proper UL/CSA listed plug suitable for 460V operation.
IMPORTANT: Consult the diagrams on pages 56 and 57 for clarification of each of these changes on 230V to 460V conversion.
Three-Phase Test Run
On the
1.Open lower front door of the Band Saw.
2.Connect machine to power source and press the start button, shown in Figure 28, for just an instant, then press the stop button. (See “Operating Controls” on page 21 for further information on the control buttons.)
3.The lower wheel should rotate clockwise as viewed from the front of the machine. If the rotation of the lower wheel is incorrect, disconnect machine from power.
4.Switch any two of the three wires at "R,S,T" (see “Electrical Connections”, pages 56 and
57)and
