1. Set the electric motor's ON/OFF switch (Figure 18) to the
ON position.
5. Place the voltage selector switch (Figure 17) in the position
that is in accordance with voltage listed on the electric motor's
nameplate. The electric motor's are shipped from the factory
with the with the voltage selector switch placed in the 115 VAC
position.
If 230 VAC is required, remove the locking bolt and nut and
flip the voltage selector toggle switch to the 230 VAC
position. Reinstall the locking bolt and nut to prevent the
toggle switch from being accidently tripped.
