These pages are accurate at the time of printing. In the constant effort to improve, however, we may 
make changes to the electrical systems of future machines. Study this section carefully. If you see 
differences between your machine and what is shown in this section, call Technical Support at (360) 
734-1540 for assistance BEFORE making any changes to the wiring on your machine.

 It is extremely dangerous to 

perform electrical or wiring tasks while the 
machine is connected to the power source. 
Touching electrified parts will result in 
personal injury including but not limited to 
severe burns, electrocution, or death. For 
your own safety, disconnect machine from 
the power source before servicing electrical 
components or performing any wiring tasks!

 All connections must be 

tight to prevent wires from loosening during 
machine operation. Double-check all wires 
disconnected or connected during any wiring 
task to ensure tight connections.

Using aftermarket parts or 

modifying the wiring beyond what is shown 
in the diagram may lead to unpredictable 
results, including serious injury or fire. 

The motor wiring shown in these 

diagrams is current at the time of printing, 
but it may not match your machine. Always 
use the wiring diagram inside the motor 
junction box.

Connecting the machine 

to an improperly sized circuit will greatly 
increase the risk of fire. To minimize 
this risk, only connect the machine to a 
power circuit that meets the minimum 
requirements given in this manual.

 Some capacitors and 

power inverters store an electrical charge for 
up to 10 minutes after being disconnected 
from the power source. To reduce the risk of 
being shocked, wait at least this long before 
working on capacitors.

 Damaged wires 

or components increase the risk of serious 
personal injury, fire, or machine damage. If 
you notice that any wires or components are 
damaged while performing a wiring task, 
replace those wires or components before 
completing the task.

 If you are 

experiencing difficulties understanding the 
information included in this section, contact 
our Technical Support at (360) 734-1540.
