220V Operation

The SHOP FOX® Model W1709 has a 71⁄2 HP, 220V single-phase sanding motor, a 1⁄2 HP, 220V feed motor, and a 1⁄3 HP table lift motor.

Use a 50 amp circuit breaker and a circuit that has wiring rated to handle this amperage draw. Keep in mind that a circuit being used by other machines or tools at the same time will add to the total load being applied. Add up the load ratings of all machines on the circuit. If this number exceeds the rating of the circuit breaker or wiring, use a different circuit.

Extension Cords

DO NOT use an extension cord for 220V high amperage industrial shop machines. We recommend following all local electrical codes and using a direct hard wired power supply that is protected by a circuit breaker and is equipped with a kill switch lever that can be locked in the OFF position.

Grounding

This machine must be grounded! Hardwire this machine into a power supply circuit that contains a ground circuit. If you have any questions about correct electrical installation, contact a qualified electrician for assistance to make sure all connections are safe and adhere to your local electrical codes.

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

before connecting electrical wires! If you ignore this warning serious electrical shock may occur causing injury or death!

Any electrical outlet and circuit that you plug your machine into must be grounded. Never remove the grounding pin from any plug, and always make sure all wiring to the machine is grounded before operating. Serious injury may occur if this warning is ignored!

DO NOT replace the circuit breaker with one rated at a higher amperage or damage to the circuit may occur.
