110V Operation
ELECTRICAL
The SHOP FOX® Model M1036 is prewired for 110 volt operation. The motor supplied with your new Micro Mill is rated at 0.2 HP and will draw approximately 2 amps. A
Connect your machine to a circuit (wire, breaker, plug, receptacle) that is rated for at least 10 amps.
Keep in mind that a circuit being used by other machines or tools at the same time will add to the total load being applied to the circuit. Add up the load ratings
of all machines on the circuit. If the total amp load exceeds the rating of the circuit breaker or fuse, use a different circuit.
Extension Cords
When it is necessary to use an extension cord, use the following guidelines:
•Use cords rated for Standard Service
•Never exceed a length of 100 feet
•Use cords with 16 ga. wire or bigger
•Ensure cord has a ground wire and pin
•Do not use cords in need of repair
