Question on a WP 250 G9 Pro

admin

I have a Lincoln WP 250 G9 PRO   Code 9181   SER.# A1120412. It has two 20amp 230v receptacles, the newer models have one 40amp (39amp) receptacle. Can a single 40amp receptacle be wired into this machine safely? Any help or advise would be appreciated. I tried the Lincoln site, but I was having difficulty with it, most likely my error, but I could not find my answer, or a diagram. How do I navigate their site to find the year of this machine?Just my  opinion, not from a book, just from the road.Howes Welding Inc.www.howesweldinginc.com
