Model SB1020
PREPARATION
Circuit Requirements for 110V
This machine is prewired to operate on a 110V
power supply circuit that has a verified ground
and meets the following requirements:
Nominal Voltage ............................... 110V/120V
Cycle .............................................................60 Hz
Phase ..............................................Single-Phase
Circuit Rating....................................... 20 Amps
Plug/Receptacle (included) ...........NEMA 5-15
For your own safety and protection of property,
consult a qualified electrician if you are unsure
about wiring practices or electrical codes in
your area.
Note: The circuit requirements listed in this
manual apply to a dedicated circuit—where only
one machine will be running at a time. If this
machine will be connected to a shared circuit
where multiple machines will be running at
the same time, consult a qualified electrician to
ensure that the circuit is properly sized for safe
operation.
A power supply circuit includes all electrical
equipment between the main breaker box or fuse
panel in your building and the incoming power
connections inside the machine. This circuit must
be safely sized to handle the full-load current
that may be drawn from the machine for an
extended period of time.
Circuit Information
Circuit Requirements for 220V
Nominal Voltage ............................... 220V/240V
Cycle .............................................................60 Hz
Phase ..............................................Single-Phase
Circuit Rating....................................... 15 Amps
Plug/Receptacle ...............................NEMA 6-15
This machine can be converted to operate on
a 220V power supply. To do this, follow the
Voltage Conversion instructions included in
this manual. The intended 220V circuit must
have a verified ground and meet the following
requirements:
Grounding Requirements
In the event of certain types of malfunctions or
breakdowns, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current—in order to reduce
the risk of electric shock.

Figure 2. NEMA 5-15 plug and receptacle.
This machine is equipped with a power cord
that has an equipment-grounding wire and a
grounding plug (similar to the figure below).
The plug must only be inserted into a matching
receptacle (outlet) that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
For 110V Connection (Prewired)
For 220V Connection
Use the plug type listed in the Circuit
Requirements for this voltage. The listed plug
(similar to the figure below) has an equipment-
grounding wire to safely ground the machine.
The plug must only be inserted into a matching
receptacle (outlet) that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
