Grizzly G0486/G0487 Circuit Requirements, 220V/440V Connection, Grounding, Amperage Loads

SECTION 2: CIRCUIT

REQUIREMENTS

220V/440V Connection

Hard wire this machine to a power panel that has proper overload protection and a locking shut-off lever (Figure 6). If you are unsure about electri- cal wiring, consult a qualified electrician before attempting any wiring.

Figure 6. Locking Shut-Off Lever.

Grounding

Electrocution or fire may result if machinery is incor- rectly grounded or the power supply violates local and state codes. Contact a qualified electrician for safe wiring practices!

Amperage Loads

The following list outlines the electrical phase and voltage required to operate the Model G0486/ G0487, as well as the amperage draw of their motors and circuit requirements.

Note: If you do not have three-phase power avail- able, you will have to install a phase converter such as the Grizzly Phase Converter.

Extension Cords

Do not use an extension cord with 220V/440V machinery. An extension cord increases the risk of electrocution and fire. Instead, position your equipment near the power supply to eliminate the extension cord requirement.
