Yes it's possible using a transformer, but because you asked the question... yes, call an electrician.

BTW the transformer will likely cost $300-$600 + install.

Probably best to just pay the money and get the 240V version. Or, call Miller and see if the 460V model can be jumpered down to 240. Probably.
