NOTICE − INCORRECT INPUT POWER can damage this welding power source. Phase to ground voltage shall not exceed +10% of rated input
voltage.
. Actual input voltage should not be 10% less than minimum and/or 10% more than maximum input voltages listed in table. If actual input voltage
is outside this range, output may not be be available.
Failure to follow these electrical service guide recommendations could create an electric shock or fire hazard. These recommenda-
tions are for a dedicated branch circuit sized for the rated output and duty cycle of the welding power source.
