Title: Vendo 83
Post by: on March 08, 2005, 10:50:49 am
I´ve recently bought a Vendo 83. The seller didn´t knew if it´s working correctly. The question is...is it wise to plug it in whitout controll from an electrician?
Another problem is that I´m living here in Sweden where we have 220 volts...what will happen if I give the machine some power?

Hi Safta,
welcome to the forum. You need a transformer to reduce the voltage from 220 to 110, otherwise you will destroy your compressor. I am sure you can buy a transformer in Sweden.
Hope you will get one.

Ok, thanks for the quick answer!
Do you think that I should change the wires aswell? (they´re original)

Yes, I would change the wires. Back to the transformer - I bought a transformer 2 years ago in Germany for about 80,- Euro.

safta, welcome to the forums! I love it when we have international members here. You'll soon see that we are all like a big family here. Stick around and get comfortable.
And I'm very glad that you asked here before plugging the V-83 in. Good thinking.
