ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
The electrical supply cord is not included with your purchase due to many jurisdictions that require
installation only by certified electricians. It may be purchased separately and installed on your farm.
Local ordinances and electrical codes will dictate wire sizing, lengths and connections including the
need for power kill switches in some locations. Always check with your local electrician for installation
assistance. Carefully review the decal on the inside of the rear panel to see which power supply your
Matilda® is prepared for per your ordering instructions. Instructions and a wiring diagram are provided
for your benefit but always call our service department for additional assistance. Failure to meet these
requirements will void the warranty and could result in serious damage to the unit, bodily injury or
death. The receptacle may need to be fitted with a water-resistant cover for added protection.
ALL CONNECTIONS SHOULD BE PERFORMED
BY AN ELECTRICIAN OR OTHER TRAINED PERSONNEL.
•
The receptacle should be sharing minimal usage with other equipment to avoid unexpected outages and tripping of the
breaker. If the power is lost, but returns within 1 hour, the cycle will resume automatically in most instances.
•
Check your electrical system to make certain it is properly grounded to avoid the possibility of electrical shock.
International Installations:
Matilda® can utilize a variety of power sources. Consult the wiring options diagram in this owner
manual (page 35) as well as those on the machine for further instruction and options. Follow the labels
attached to the back of the machine for specific wiring instructions in these instances.
