The Model G0592 motor draws the following amps under maximum load:

Motor Draw at 220V

15 Amps

Circuit Requirements

We recommend using a dedicated circuit for this machine. You MUST connect your machine to a grounded circuit that is rated for the amperage given below. Never replace a circuit breaker on an existing circuit with one of higher amper- age without consulting a qualified electrician to ensure compliance with wiring codes. If you are unsure about the wiring codes in your area or you plan to connect your machine to a shared circuit, consult a qualified electrician.

220V Circuit

20 Amps

Plug/Receptacle Type

Grounding

In the event of an electrical short, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock. The grounding wire in the power cord must be properly connect- ed to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the outlet must be properly installed and ground- ed. All electrical connections must be made in accordance with local codes and ordinances.

Electrocution or fire could result if this machine is not grounded correctly or if your electrical con- figuration does not com- ply with local and state codes. Ensure compliance by checking with a quali- fied electrician!

Extension Cords

We do not recommend the use of extension cords. Instead, arrange the placement of your equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate the need for extension cords.

If you find it absolutely necessary to use an extension cord at 220V with your machine:

Use at least a 12 gauge cord that does not exceed 50 feet in length!

Recommended Plug/Receptacle....NEMA L6-20

G0592 specifications

The Grizzly G0592 is a high-performance milling machine designed to meet the demands of both professional and hobbyist woodworkers. Known for its robust construction and precise engineering, this machine combines versatility with durability, making it an essential tool for any woodworking shop.

One of the standout features of the G0592 is its powerful motor, which offers a significant amount of torque, enabling it to handle a variety of materials with ease. The machine is equipped with a 3 HP motor that operates on 220V single-phase power, providing consistent performance for heavy-duty milling tasks. This high power helps to minimize stalling or bogging down during operation, ensuring smooth and efficient cutting.

The G0592 also boasts a generous working table made from precision-ground cast iron, measuring 9” x 49”. This extensive surface area allows for the handling of larger workpieces and offers ample space for stock support. The table is fitted with T-slots, allowing for easy attachment of jigs, fixtures, and clamping tools, enhancing the versatility of the machine.

Another notable characteristic is its adjustable dovetail ways, which provide enhanced stability and precision during operation. This design helps in maintaining alignment and reduces wear on the machine over time. Additionally, the G0592 features a variable speed drive that allows users to adjust the spindle speed from 60 to 4,000 RPM, accommodating various cutting applications ranging from heavy milling to delicate engraving.

The head of the G0592 is also a significant aspect of its design. It can be swiveled up to 90 degrees, facilitating angular cuts and increasing the range of milling operations possible. Moreover, the machine includes a digital readout (DRO) for both the table and spindle positions, providing real-time feedback and enhanced accuracy during operations.

Safety features, such as an emergency stop button and a protective enclosure around the spindle, are integrated into the G0592 to ensure a safe working environment. Overall, the Grizzly G0592 is engineered for those who value precision and performance in their milling tasks, making it a reliable choice in both professional and amateur settings.
