Electrical Connections
Electrical connections must
be made by a qualified electrician in
compliance with all relevant codes. This
machine must be properly grounded to help
prevent electrical shock and possible fatal
injury.
The 31A Sander is equipped with either a single
phase 115/230 volt motor (pre-wired 115V); or
a three phase 230/460 volt motor (pre-wired
230V).
The three phase sander is not equipped with a
plug. You may either install a UL/CSA listed plug
suitable for 230 or 460 volt operation, or “hard-
wire” the sander directly to a service panel. If the
Sander is to be hard-wired to a panel, make
sure a disconnect is available for the operator.
During hard-wiring of the machine, make sure
the fuses have been removed or the breakers
have been tripped in the circuit to which the
Sander will be connected.
Make sure the voltage of your power supply
matches the specifications on the motor plate of
the sander.
Converting from 115 Volt to 230 Volt
(Single Phase Only)
To convert from 115V to 230V (1 phase model),
consult the diagrams inside the cover of the
motor junction box, to determine how to switch
the motor leads. A similar diagram is also found
at the back of this manual.

Figure 11
(single phase model)
The 115V attachment plug supplied with the
sander must be replaced with a UL/CSA listed
plug suitable for 230V operation. Contact your
local authorized WMH Tool Group service center
or qualified electrician for proper procedures to
install the plug. The sander must comply with all
local and national codes after the 230 volt plug
is installed.
