The G1019Z Bandsaw motor is prewired to oper- ate at 110V. See Figure 1. Under normal 110V use, the motor draws approximately 12 amps. We recommend a 15 amp circuit breaker or a 15 amp
We also recommend that the circuit you use should be dedicated, (i.e., the G1019Z should provide the only draw from that circuit). If frequent circuit failures occur when using the bandsaw, contact our Service Department or your local electrical contractor.

The motor supplied with the G1019Z can be oper- ated at either 110V or 220V. The motor comes prewired for 110V.
If converting to operate at 220V, a suitable 220V plug must be wired in. Refer to the wiring diagram insert supplied with this manual. When operating at 220V, we recommend using a NEMA-style 6L- 15 plug and outlet. See Figure 2. Check the elec- trical codes in your area for specifics on wiring requirements.
Under normal use, the motor draws approximate- ly 6 amps @ 220V. We recommend a 10 amp cir- cuit breaker. This should be satisfactory for nor- mal use while providing enough protection against damage caused by power surges.
