Can using a downstep transformer (230v to 110v) cause any damage to the MKS70 transformer ? ... had to
2008-05-16 by PeWe
AFAIK, you have to change the transformer. I have a MKS70 too since many years and got it from the US,- so I had to change it too.
2008-05-16 by gil_we
Does anyone have any idea how a 110v MKS70 can be internally converted to 230v ? Thanks !

Hi, I am the owner of a Polivoks, that has some problems now. This started while playing with the unit, when it was switched on and was on hold for a while.
