Preparation Overview
The purpose of the preparation section is to help
you prepare your machine for operation. The
list below outlines the basic process to follow
to prepare your machine for operation. Specific
steps for each of these points will be covered in
detail later in this section.
The typical preparation process is as follows:
1. Unpack the machine and inventory the
contents of the carton.
2. Clean the machine and its components.
3. Make any necessary adjustments or
inspections to ensure the machine is ready
for operation.
4. Connect the machine to the power source.
5. Test run the machine to make sure it
functions properly and is ready for operation.
Required for Setup
The items listed below are required to
successfully set up and prepare this machine for
operation.
For Power Connection
• A power source that meets the minimum
circuit requirements for this machine. (Refer
to the Power Supply Requirements
section for details.)
• A qualified electrician to ensure a safe and
code-compliant connection to the power
source.
Power Supply
Requirements
Electrocution or fire may
occur if machine is not
correctly grounded and
attached to the power
supply. Use a qualified
electrician to ensure a safe
power connection.
Before installing the machine, consider the
availability and proximity of the required power
supply circuit. If an existing circuit does not meet
the requirements for this machine, a new circuit
must be installed.
To minimize the risk of electrocution, fire,
or equipment damage, installation work and
electrical wiring must be done by a qualified
electrician in accordance with all applicable
codes and standards.
Availability
The full-load current rating is the amperage
a machine draws at 100% of the rated output
power. On machines with multiple motors, this is
the amperage drawn by the largest motor or sum
of all motors and electrical devices that might
operate at one time during normal operations.
The full-load current is not the maximum
amount of amps that the machine will draw. If
the machine is overloaded, it will draw additional
amps beyond the full-load rating.
If the machine is overloaded for a sufficient
length of time, damage, overheating, or fire may
result—especially if connected to an undersized
circuit. To reduce the risk of these hazards,
avoid overloading the machine during operation
and make sure it is connected to a power supply
circuit that meets the requirements in the
following section.
Full-Load Current Rating
Full-Load Rating at 110V .................. 8.6 Amps
Full-Load Rating at 220V .................. 4.3 Amps
