Burr King Model 1200 - Manual (Page 8)

3. Verify that the AC power that is identified on the machine matches the AC power that
you intend to operate the machine. Do not modify the Model 1200 wiring or other
electrical controls without the advice of the factory or a competent electrician.
4. Do not modify or defeat any AC wiring safety feature. In example, do not remove the
grounding pin on the AC plug.
5. Read the Operator, and Operating Area Safety Instructions carefully. Insure that all
persons who will operate the Model 1200, or who will work in the vicinity of the Model
1200 read, understand, and comply with these instructions.
6. Insure that the Model 1200 is located in an area that provides safe access to the
machine such that operators have clear and unobstructed working space. The work place
should be free from floor obstructions, trip points, and other faults that may reduce
operator safety.
7. Insure that the Model 1200 AC power source is properly sized for wire, and properly
fused service. Use the following as a guide for electrical service to reliably operate your
Model 1200 (you should consult a competent electrician and observe local codes):
Service Min.
AWG 1.5 HP 2.0HP 3.0HP
120VAC/1PH 12AWG copper 20 N/A N/A
220VAC/1PH 12AWG copper 10 15 N/A
220VAC/3PH 14AWG copper 7 10 15
440VAC/3PH 16AWG copper 3 4 6
8. All three phase electrical installations should include a magnetic starter. Magnetic
starters protect motors from “double phasing”, overheating, etc. thereby reducing the risk
of damage to the equipment and/or fire hazard to your facility. Models equipped with 3
phase power inverters for variable speed control do not require magnetic starters.
9. Some variable speed 1.5 HP/1PH motors include line fuses that are built into the rear
of the base that supports the motor. 120VAC/1PH variable speed motors use 25 ampere
fast blow fuses, 220VAC/1PH variable speed motors use 15 ampere fast blow fuses.
Fixed speed motors should have proper fuses used in the customer’s supply circuitry (see
7 above). NEVER use fuses that are of greater amperage than listed. To do so may create
a fire hazard, or equipment damage.
Functional operating instructions for the Model 1200 buffer
The Model 1200 was fully tested and verified to comply with requirements prior to
shipping from the factory. No adjustments should be necessary. You should perform the
following steps:
1. With the machine securely bolted to its table, pedestal, and/or floor point connect the
AC power to its source.
2. Support the Model 1200 with a vertical brace mounted to the two 5/16 inch holes
that you will find located in the front face of the air cross-over duct between the
wheels. The factory can provide a brace to interface with a Burr King supplied
pedestal. Since it is not possible for us to know how you will mount your Model
1200 we do not provide a brace except with the aforementioned pedestal. Your
brace should be securely fastened to the Model 1200 guard as described above
