8.0 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
!
Electrical connections must be made by a
qualified electrician in compliance with all relevant
codes. This machine must be properly grounded
while in use to help protect the operator from
electrical shock and possible fatal injury.
The main motor is rated for 230 volt only. Confirm that
power available at the lathe’s location is the same rating as
the lathe.
IMPORTANT:
The lathe must be wired properly
and phased correctly. The spindle should rotate
counterclockwise (as viewed from the tailstock end) while
the feed rod rotates clockwise (as viewed from the tailstock
end). If the phasing needs correction, disconnect lathe
from power source and switch any two of the three power
leads (not the green ground wire).
If wiring for single phase input, connect at R and T, as
shown in the wiring diagram in section 14.0.
Make sure the lathe is properly grounded.
