The 230/208-volt models require their own single branch
circuit supplying 230/208-volt
a.c.,
protected with a time
delay fuse or circuit breaker. This is recommend for best
performance and to prevent overloading house wiring
circuits, which
codd
cause a possible tie hazard from
overheating wires.
The power cord on
tiese
models has a 230/208-volt
perpendictiar,
tandem or large tandem-type plug that
mates respectively with a 230/208-volt

checked by a

Use of Adapter Plug
(115-volt models
ody)
Because of potential safety
hazards under certain conditions,
we strongly recommend against use
of an adapter plug. However, if you
still elect to use an adapter, where
local codes permit, a temporary
connection may be made to a
properly grounded two-prong wall
outlet by use of a
~-listed
adapter
(Fig. 2) available at most local
hardware stores.

The larger slot in the adapter must
be aligned with the larger slot in

Should the adapter ground terminal

EXTENSION
Because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions, we strongly
recommend against the use of an
extension cord. However, if you stall
elect to use an extension cord, it is
absolutely necessary
fiat
it be a

current carrying rating of the cord in
amperes be equal to or greater than
tie
branch circuit size shown on the
