Power Supply Circuit Requirements
You MUST connect your machine to a grounded
circuit that is rated for the amperage given below.
Never replace a circuit breaker on an existing cir-
cuit with one of higher amperage without consult-
ing a qualified electrician to ensure compliance
with wiring codes.
If you are unsure about the
wiring codes in your area or you plan to con-
nect your machine to a shared circuit, consult
a qualified electrician.
Minimum Circuit Size .............................15 Amps
This machine MUST have a ground prong in
the plug to help ensure that it is grounded.
DO NOT remove ground prong from plug
to fit into a two-pronged outlet! If the plug
will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
Extension Cords
We do not recommend using extension cords, but
if you find it absolutely necessary:
• Use at least a 16 gauge cord that does not
exceed 50 feet in length!
• The extension cord must have a ground wire
and plug pin.
• A qualified electrician MUST size cords over
50 feet long to prevent motor damage.
SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
Serious personal injury could occur if you
connect the machine to power before com-
pleting the setup process. DO NOT connect
the machine to the power until instructed
later in this manual.
Electrocution or fire could
result if machine is not
grounded and installed in
compliance with electrical
codes. Compliance MUST
be verified by a qualified
electrician!
Power Connection Device
The Model H3118 comes with a 5-15 plug, similar
to
Figure 1, to connect the machine to power.
Reduce the risk of electrocution by keeping
all connections dry and off the ground. DO
NOT touch plugs with wet hands. Failure to
follow these warnings could result in seri-
ous injury.
