You're probably thinking about range and dryer cords and plugs as examples
of "actual 240 v. power cord" but you really don't need range or dryer cord,
plugs or receptacles for your application - you're not pulling nearly
enough current to justify wire gauges that heavy and all you'd end up with
are cumbersome cables and bulky plugs with a lot of unused capacity. Dryers
and ranges need at least 50 amps at 240 volts; your amp needs 10 amps at 240
volts.
So, I'm not sure why you wouldn't leave the cord and just replace the 120VAC
plug supplied with a 240 v. (e.g., one that looks like a "regular" plug
except that the flat pins are perpendicular to each other instead of
parallel) after you change the jumpers and fuses.
