INPUT CONNECTIONS
Before starting the installation, check with the local
power company if there is any question about whether
your power supply is adequate for the voltage,
amperes, phase, and frequency specified on the
machine nameplate. Also be sure the planned instal-
lation will meet the any National Electrical Code and
local code requirements. This machine may be oper-
ated from a single phase line or from one phase of a
two or three phase line.
Models that have multiple input voltages specified on
the nameplate (e.g. 208/230/460) are shipped con-
nected for the highest voltage. If the machine is to be
operated on the lower voltage, it must be reconnected
according to the instructions on the inside of the
removable panel in the center of the rear panel.
Machine supply line entry provision is next to the
removable panel.

Have a qualified electrician connect the input leads to
L1 and L2 of the terminal block in accordance with
any National Electrical Code, all local codes and the
connection diagram located on the inside of the cover.
Use ferrules provided (S19117-1) for #10 wire. No
ferrule is required for #8 wire. Tighten screws to 16
in/lbs. (1.8 N.M.). See below.
ELECTRIC SHOCK can kill.
• Disconnect input power before
proceeding.
• Have a qualified electrician make
the input connections.
• Be sure the voltage, phase and frequency
of the input power is as specified on the
machine nameplate.
