Grounding | Grizzly G1023 specs

Circuit Requirements		Grounding

The Model G1023 Table Saw has one 3 HP motor. It has been pre-wired to operate at 220V, single phase operation and cannot be operated at 110V. The Model G1023 motor will safely draw about 18 amps at 220V. If you operate the table saw on any circuit that is already close to its capacity, it might blow a fuse or trip a circuit breaker. However, if an unusual load does not exist, and power failure still occurs, have the cir- cuit inspected by a qualified electrician.

Circuit breakers/fuses: A 30 amp circuit break- er or fuse should be used with a 220V dedicated circuit. The general rule is to use the lightest breaker or fuse that will hold under regular loads. Circuit breakers or fuses that are rated higher may not adequately protect the motor.

The Model G1023 is not equipped with a plug. It will be necessary to connect a plug that is suit- able for your 220V receptacle. Figure 1.

This equipment must be grounded. Please ensure that the Model G1023 is continuously grounded from the motor to the machine frame and then to a known ground. Verify that any exist- ing electrical outlet and circuit you intend to plug into is actually grounded. If it is not, it will be nec- essary to run a separate 12 A.W.G. copper grounding wire from the outlet to a known ground. Under no circumstances should the grounding pin from any three-pronged plug be removed.

CAUTION: Be sure that your particular electrical configuration complies with local and state codes. The best way to ensure compliance is to check with your local municipality or licensed electri- cian.
