Hello , can anyone tell me if the motor can be switched to 220v? Tank you.

no the motor is 120 volt only. If you wanted 220 you would have to change out the motor.

The machine is made for 110v, so not sure about 220. I think you could google Technivorm, and there will be contact numbers for where you live and I would contact them directly about this.

That motor is configurable for either 110 volts or 220 volts, which it calls Lo and Hi. You need to figure out what voltage your supply is and adjust the white and brown wires to the corresponding positions. When you change out the pump mark your wired and you should be fine.

I only know of 110v. I can't imagine it would support 220v. You can always call Poll support. They are very friendly.

I have not noticed that there was written 120 and plug into 220 v. After I bought voltage converter, checked and the machine did not work. Is it possible that I did burn the motor?

No. The motor is wired for 120Volt. If you have 220 volt power, Festool from Europe, Australia, India or South Africa distributes 220volt tools. Alternatively, you could get a step down transformer, 2500watt, to downgrade 220 volt to 110 volt. REMEMBER that 110volt works at 60 Hz while 220volt works at 50Hz. So the machine will run slower when you run it from 220 volt through a transformer. In short, if you have 220volt, buy 220 volt tools. They are superior to 110 volt.

Thanks for your interest in this item. I apologize, it is impossible to get in 220 volt.

It's 120V, I doubt that it can be converted, but you can always check with Makita.

120 V - ask Makita if they make a 220 v version. [BTW, why would U want 220 v anyway ?]

where did you order your motor from? If from the USA it will be a 110 volt and you will burn the motor out without a transformer

I think the motor would have to be changed. I don't know if a 220v motor is available. As for power, wattage would be the same. With double the volts the amps used would be cut in half. volts X amps = volts. Peace.

I'm not sure - never used it on anything other than 120V, but my guess is that it would not work or this could also result in damage to the motor.

The plate on the motor says "120V~ 15A 50-60Hz" so no it cannot. 120V is all it will accept

Hello, it's 120v. You might need a voltage converter to change it into 220v.

Hi Pat. You have an option to choose from 110 V or 220 Volt. You just need to contact the seller and inform them what voltage you need. I did that and they sent me a 220 Volt one. Hope this helps.

You are gonna need a voltage converter. But make sure the one you choose has no restriction on motors. In others words, you are gonna need an expensive one, around 50 USD.

Yes, there is a version with a 220V motor and a different F1 fuse. Don't try plugging the 110V version into a 220V outlet.
