Serious personal injury could occur if you connect your machine to the power source before you have completed the set up process. DO NOT connect the machine to the power source until instructed to do so.
Wiring
The Model G0501 is prewired for 220V
Amperage Draw
The Model G0501 has a 10 HP main motor and a 1 HP scoring motor that will draw the following amps at 220V
Arbor Motor | 25 | Amps |
Scoring Motor | 3 | Amps |
Circuit Breaker Requirements
Install the machine on a dedicated circuit to reduce the possibility of overloading the circuit and tripping the circuit breaker. If the circuit breaker trips and the circuit is of the correct load capacity, have the circuit inspected by qualified electrician. Never use a larger circuit breaker than stated below, or you will increase the risk of fire.
Circuit Breaker | 30 Amp, 3 Pole |
Minimum Cord Requirements
For 220V
Cord | 3 pole, 4 wire |
Gauge | 10 |
Plug Type
The plug you install on your cord will depend upon the type of service you currently have or plan to install. We recommend using the following plug and receptacle for your machine on a dedi- cated circuit only (see Figure 1a for an example):

Your Shop Circuit Capacity
Always check to see if the wires in your circuit are capable of handling the amperage draw from your machine, as well as any other machines that could be operating on the same circuit. If you are unsure, consult a qualified electrician.
A fire may occur if your particular electrical configuration does not comply with local and state codes. The best way to ensure compliance is to check with your local municipality or a licensed electrician.
