Extension Cords
We do not recommend using an extension cord
with this machine.
If you must use an extension
cord, only use it if absolutely necessary and only
on a temporary basis.
Extension cords cause voltage drop, which may
damage electrical components and shorten motor
life. Voltage drop increases as the extension cord
size gets longer and the gauge size gets smaller
(higher gauge numbers indicate smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine must
contain a ground wire, match the required plug
and receptacle, and meet the following require-
ments:
Minimum Gauge ...................................14 AWG
Maximum Length (Shorter is Better).......50 ft.

For 240V operation: The plug specified under
“
Circuit Requirements for 240V” on the previous
page has a grounding prong that must be attached
to the equipment-grounding wire on the included
power cord. The plug must only be inserted into
a matching receptacle (see following figure) that
is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
G0452Z Circuit Requirements for
240V Operation (Rewired)
This machine can be converted to operate on a
240V power supply
(refer to
Voltage Conversion
instructions) that has a verified ground and meets
the following requirements:
Nominal Voltage ........................................240V
Cycle ..........................................................60 Hz
Phase ........................................... Single-Phase
Power Supply Circuit ......................... 15 Amps
Plug/Receptacle ............................. NEMA 6-15
Serious injury could occur if you connect
the machine to power before completing the
setup process. DO NOT connect to power
until instructed later in this manual.
