Electrical connection
Note the machine is not supplied with an electrical cord or plug, as the
size of the cable and the type of plug will be dependent on the
installation.
A qualified electrician must carry out the electrical installation. The main
connection should be made using the terminal box shown. Ensure that the
main supply corresponds with that of the machine, single phase or three-
phases. Use wiring suitable for the power of the motor, which is 230 volts, and
the cable is required.

machines require the minimum of a 30-amp circuit breaker regardless of
the phase.
Connect the electrical wires to the terminals opposite the wires going to the
machine. On a single-phase machine you will find 3 wires. On a 3-phase
machine you will find 4. On the machine you will see a wire that is yellow and
green, which is the ground wire; the other colored wires are power. In either 1-
phase or 3-phase it does not matter what color combination you use. Green is
ground; all other wiring is power (there is no neutral). On single-phase the
wiring can be interchanged as you wish; it would not affect the rotation of the
