post the nameplate information for the input.  the makers website has a pdf manual you can download.

Voltage in
Current draw

Looks to be a 220v in / 50A 2pole breaker with 10 or 8 awg wire.

get the following

a 220 stove outlet
a 220 stove receptical
a spool of wire (6awg bundle that has 2 hots, a N ) 3 wires total
a 50A 2 phase breaker

If you can get a 4 pole outlet and receptical, that would be best because then you can go with a 4 conductor wire spool.  Well pump wire comes in rolls and should be sufficient.
