Matt,
This is also another number I have heard. In either case, it won't cause us to throw the machine to the curb. Now for the details on my progress today. I have contacted a local distributer and he gave me a number I could call nationally for service. I contacted this individual who told me where to look inside the electrical panel to check the actual transformers to see if we could wire it to 208V. Nope the primary voltage is (380/400/440). So now I have put in a call to our sponsors to see if they have any transformers laying around. Hey it never hurts. Worst case I will contact a few local electrical distributes to see about a quote. I also ha a co-worker contact a local power company he worked for to see if they might have anything we coil use. Nope.
I sure am learning alt from this.
