We do not recommend using an extension cord with your
machine. If you have no other choice, use the following
guidelines:
• Use cords rated for Standard Service
• Never exceed a length of 50 feet
• Ensure cord has a ground wire and pin
• Do not use cords in need of repair
Extension Cords
Grounding
This machine must be grounded! Verify that any exist-
ing electrical outlet and circuit you intend to plug into
is actually grounded. If it is not, it will be necessary to
run a separate copper grounding wire, of the appropri-
ate size, from the outlet to a known ground. Under no
circumstances should you connect your machine to an
ungrounded power source or electrocution or severe
shock could occur.
220V Operation
The Model W1677/W1711 is prewired for 220V operation.
Always connect this machine to a dedicated circuit with a
verified ground, using the recommended circuit size and
power connection method stated below.
Never replace a circuit breaker with one of higher amper-
age without consulting a qualified electrician to ensure
compliance with wiring codes. If you are unsure about
the wiring codes in your area or plan to connect your
machine to a shared circuit, you may create a fire haz-
ard—consult a qualified electrician to reduce this risk.
Electrocution or severe shock could
occur if machine is not grounded.

Replacing an existing circuit breaker
with one rated for higher amperage
may result in a fire. Get help from an
electrician if your circuit is too small
for the machine.
