If it is wired as stated 1-2, 2-3, and 1-3, and all heaters turn on the voltage will spike to 380 and overpower the heaters. The heaters I removed say 1050 watts and 240 power. The nozzle says nothing but it is hard to read. Perhaps it was wired wrong when I got it. Thank you for the info.

May 24, 2017 at 10:58 comment added Ken Krout I will look for a manual. The rotary converter is oversized, as the seller selected it based on the hydraulic motor needs. I have been making 20-30,000 parts per year for the past 7 years with no problems. In your manual, is the power the same as the heater? Are you running 220 power to the heaters and getting 220 at each heater?
