DO NOT work on your electrical system
if you are unsure about electrical
codes and wiring! Seek assistance from
a qualified electrician. Ignoring this
warning can result in electrocution,
fire, or machine damage.
ELECTRICAL
We do not recommend using an extension cord; however,
if you have no alternative, use the following guidelines:
• Use a cord rated for Standard Service (S).
• Do not use a cord longer than 50 feet.
• Ensure that the cord has a ground wire and pin.
• Use the gauge size listed below as a minimum.
Extension Cords
110V/220V Operation
The Model W1755 is prewired for 110V operation, but
you can rewire it for 220V operation (refer to the wir-
ing diagram on Page 41). We recommend connecting this
machine to a dedicated circuit with a verified ground,
using the circuit size given below. Never replace a circuit
breaker with one of higher amperage without consulting
a qualified electrician to ensure compliance with wiring
codes.
This machine must be grounded! The electrical cord sup-
plied with this machine comes with a grounding pin. If
your outlet does not accommodate a ground pin, have it
replaced by a qualified electrician.
If you are unsure about the wiring codes in your area
or you plan to connect your machine to a shared cir-
cuit, you may create a fire or circuit overload hazard—
consult a qualified electrician to reduce this risk.
