Serious injury could occur if you connect
machine to power before completing setup
process. DO NOT connect to power until
instructed later in this manual.
No adapter should be used with plug. If
plug does not fit available receptacle, or if
machine must be reconnected for use on a

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 can
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
be in good condition and contain a ground wire
and matching plug/receptacle. Additionally, it must
meet the following size requirements:
Minimum Gauge Size ...........................12 AWG
Maximum Length (Shorter is Better).......50 ft.

Voltage Conversion

The voltage conversion MUST be performed by
a qualified electrician. To perform the voltage
conversion, install the correct plug and rewire the
motor to the new voltage, according to the pro-
vided wiring diagram. If the diagram included on
the motor conflicts with the one in this manual, the
motor may have changed since the manual was
printed. Use the diagram provided on the motor.
Circuit Requirements for G0569 @ 440V
This machine can be converted to operate on a
power supply circuit that has a verified ground
and meets the requirements listed below. (Refer
to Voltage Conversion instructions for details.)
Nominal Voltage ............................. 440V, 480V
Cycle ..........................................................60 Hz
Phase .................................................... 3-Phase
Power Supply Circuit ......................... 15 Amps

Connection Type

A permanently connected (hardwired) power sup-
ply is typically installed with wires running through
mounted and secured conduit. A disconnecting
means, such as a locking switch (see following
figure), must be provided to allow the machine
to be disconnected (isolated) from the power
supply when required. This installation must be
performed by an electrician in accordance with all
applicable electrical codes and ordinances.
