[sdiy] Oberheim OB-Mx PSU question

Greetings,

Here in Germany the wall sockets are 230 volts and my
new OB-Mx (thanks to great trader Peter Grenader!)
runs off 115 volts. I know hardly anything about
electronics and I would like to avoid using an
external power converter, and need to know if and how
the OB itself can possibly be converted.

There is this piece of info I don't understand: above
the OB-Mx' female connector for the power cord, there
is a lid of the same size. Apparently it can't be
opened without force. There is an inscription that
says:
"(For CSA only)
Use only with a 250 v fuse"
In the middle of the lid there is a plexiglass window
of a few millimeters covering what seems to be a strip
of paper stating (vertically) "115".

Input and advise appreciated.

Regards

Sebastian Kuehnl
