machine. Use the following guideline when
choosing a circuit breaker (circuit breakers rated
any higher are not adequate to protect the cir-
cuit):

Your Circuit Capacity
Always check to see if the wires in your circuit are
capable of handling the amperage load from your
machine. If you are unsure, consult a qualified
electrician.
If you operate this machine on any circuit that is
already close to its load capacity, it may blow a
fuse or trip a circuit breaker. If the circuit is not
overloaded and the fuse or circuit breaker still
trips, contact a qualified electrician or our Service
Department at (570) 546-9663.
Serious personal injury could occur if you
connect your machine to the power source
before you have completed the assembly
process. DO NOT connect the machine to
the power source until instructed to do so.
