Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding

type plugs and matching 3-conductor receptacles that accept

the machine’s plug.

Repair or replace damaged or worn cord immediately.

SHOCK HAZARD. In all cases, make certain

that the receptacle in question is properly grounded. If

you are not sure, have a qualified electrician check the

receptacle.

2. Grounded, cord-connected machines intended for use

on a supply circuit having a nominal rating between 150 -

250 volts, inclusive:

If the machine is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet

that looks like the one illustrated in Fig. A or Fig. B, the machine

will have a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in

Fig. A or Fig. B. Make sure the machine is connected to an

outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter is

available or should be used with this machine. If the machine

must be re-connected for use on a different type of electric

circuit, the re-connection should be made by qualified service

personnel; and after re-connection, the machine should

comply with the National Electric Code and all local codes and

ordinances.

NOTE: The plug for the 3 HP model looks like the plug

illustrated in Fig. A. Make sure the 3 HP machine is connected

to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug.

NOTE: The plug for the 5 HP model looks like the plug

illustrated in Fig. B. Make sure the 5 HP machine is connected

to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug.

3. Permanently connected machines:

If the machine is intended to be permanently connected, all

wiring must be done by a qualified electrician and conform to

the National Electric Code and all local codes and ordinances.

THREE PHASE OPERATION: Three phase machines are

not supplied with a power cord and must be permanently

connected to a building’s electrical system. Extension cords

can’t be used with a three phase machine.

LVC MAGNETIC MOTOR CONTROL: If you purchased a

machine that has a Low Voltage Magnetic Motor Control

System, refer to its instruction manual for installation guidance.

EXTENSION CORDS

Use proper extension cords. Make sure your

extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension

cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching

receptacle which will accept the machine’s plug. When

using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough

to carry the current of the machine. An undersized cord

will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power

and overheating. Fig. C, shows the correct gauge to use

depending on the cord length. If in doubt, use the next

heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier

the cord.
