SECTION 3: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS

110V Operation

Amperage Draw

The Model G0518 is prewired to operate at 110V, with an amperage draw of approximately 12A.

Plug Type

The Model G0518 is supplied with a NEMA 5-15 plug. DO NOT modify the plug or power cord in any way. See Figure 1 for a NEMA 5-15 plug and grounded outlet.

Circuit Breaker Requirements

We recommend operating the machine on a ded- icated circuit. Because the machine draws 12A when operated at 110V, use a 15A circuit break- er. Circuit breakers rated any higher are not ade- quate to protect the circuit from overheating and fire.

Your 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.

If the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows regu- larly, your machine may be operating on a circuit that is close to its amperage draw capacity. However, if an unusual amperage draw does not exist and a power failure still occurs, contact a qualified electrician or our service department.

Serious personal injury could occur if you connect your machine to the power source before you have completed the assembly process. DO NOT connect the machine to the power source until instructed to do so.
