220V Operation

The Shop Fox Model W1751 has a 7.5 HP, 32A, 220V single-phase sanding motor, and a 14 HP, 1.8A, 220V feed motor. Hardwire your machine to a power panel (Figure 1) that is rated for at least 50 amps.

We recommend connecting this machine to a dedicated circuit with a verified ground, using the circuit breaker size given below. Never replace a circuit breaker with one of higher amperage 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 cir- cuit, you may create a fire hazard—consult a qualified electrician to reduce this risk.

Extension Cords

We do not recommend using an extension cord for 220V operation. When it is necessary to use an extension cord, use the following guidelines:

Use cords rated for Standard Service

Never exceed a length of 50 feet

Ensure cord has a ground wire and pin

Do not use cords in need of repair

Use no smaller than 6 gauge cords

Grounding

This machine must be grounded! Verify that any exist- ing electrical outlet and circuit you intend to plug into is actually grounded. If it is not, it will be necessary to run a separate copper grounding wire, of the appropri- ate size, from the outlet to a known ground. Under no circumstances should you connect your machine to an ungrounded power source or electrocution or severe shock could occur.

DO NOT attempt to work on your shop electrical system if you are unsure about electrical codes and wiring! Seek assistance from a qualified elec- trician. Ignoring this warning can cause electrocution!

TURN OFF and LOCK your master power switch so no power is available to the sander before

connecting electrical OFF wires! If you ignore this warning seriouselectrical shock may occur causing

injury or death!
