connect the machine to the power source
before you have completed the set up pro-

circuit requirements
We recommend connecting your machine to a
dedicated and grounded circuit that is rated for
the amperage given below. never replace a circuit
breaker on an existing circuit with one of higher
amperage without consulting a qualified electri-
cian to ensure compliance with wiring codes.
if
you are unsure about the wiring codes in your
area or you plan to connect your machine to a
shared circuit, consult a qualified electrician.

220v connection type
For 220V 3-phase connection of this lathe, we
recommend wiring your machine with a l15-30
plug and recepticle. A qualified electrician should
determine the best cord to use in your environ-
ment.

grounding
in the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock. the grounding
wire in the power cord must be properly connected
to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the
outlet must be properly installed and grounded.
All electrical connections must be made in accor-
dance with local codes and ordinances.
electrocution or fire could
result if this machine is
not grounded correctly
or if your electrical con-
figuration does not com-
ply with local and state
codes. ensure compliance
by checking with a quali-
fied electrician!
if your lathe is connected to a phase converter
for 3-phase power, the power from the manufac-
tured power leg (sometimes called the wild wire or
manufactured leg) can fluctuate.
Make sure that when you connect the lathe to
the phase converter that you connect the "Wild
Wire" or the "Manufactured leg" from the phase
converter to the lathe input lead
l2. otherwise,
your lathe may not start properly, and magnetic
switch chatter and transformer damage will occur.
if swapping motor rotation direction, swap
l1 &
l3, but do not touch l2.

extension cords
We do not recommend the use of extension cords.
instead, arrange the placement of your equipment
and the installed wiring to eliminate the need for
extension cords.
