Just bought used La Marzocco Linea 4AV 220V. from ebay.
The owner sent me the machine with motor and pump, but the motor indicate it is 110V. motor. :shock:
Is this normal? or maybe the owner mix the motor up with another machine?
Is it suppose to be 220V. motor?

Thanks

This (http://www.espressoparts.com/V_241) is the correct pump motor. I can't imagine why a 110v wouldn't work if it was wired correctly but that's another story!

Make sure it's not a dual-voltage motor. Sometimes you can change a couple of connections inside to switch from 110v to 220v... There should be info on the motor label if that is the case.

Otherwise, it might be wired to only one leg of the 220v circuit, which is not very smart (although it'll work).
