! DANGER Improper electrical connections can damage the unit and cause serious operator injury or death! Bring properly sized power leads and ground from a fused disconnect (installed by your electrician) to the unit. Provide external overcurrent protection to the unit, using circuit breakers or fuses. If you use fuses, make sure that they are dual-element time- delay fuses, sized according to your electrical code. Make sure that all electrical connections are tight. Important!
