Electrocution or a fire can result if the machine is not grounded correct- ly. Make sure all electri- cal circuits are ground- ed. DO NOT use the machine if it is not grounded.

NOTICE

The wire on the power cord with green or green and yellow striped insulation is the grounding conductor.

In the event of an electrical short, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance to disperse electric cur- rent. This tool is equipped with a power cord that has an equipment-grounding prong. The outlet must be properly installed and grounded in accor- dance with all local codes and ordinances.

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.

Extension Cords

We do not recommend the use of extension cords with 220V equipment. Instead, arrange the place- ment of your equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate the need for extension cords. Should the situation be necessary to use an extension, make sure the cord is rated Standard Service (grade S) or better. The extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or replace extension cords when they become worn or damaged.

G0548 specifications

The Grizzly G0548 is a versatile and reliable dust collection system that is designed specifically for woodworkers and hobbyists who require efficient and effective dust management in their workshops. This machine is a vital addition to any serious workshop, helping to maintain a clean and safe working environment by effectively capturing wood chips and airborne dust.

One of the standout features of the Grizzly G0548 is its powerful motor. Equipped with a robust 1 HP motor, this dust collector provides ample suction power to handle even the most demanding dust collection tasks. With a maximum airflow of up to 1,250 CFM (cubic feet per minute), it ensures that dust is efficiently extracted from various machines, such as routers, table saws, and planers. This powerful airflow not only keeps the workspace clean but also helps in protecting the health of the user by reducing exposure to harmful wood particles.

The Grizzly G0548 comes with a 5-micron filtration bag that traps even the finest dust particles, allowing for cleaner air circulation in the workshop. The easy-to-change bag system ensures that maintaining the dust collector is a straightforward process, making it accessible for users of all skill levels. Additionally, an optional HEPA filter can be integrated for those seeking even higher levels of filtration, further enhancing the machine's effectiveness in dust collection.

Another significant aspect of the G0548 is its compact design, which makes it ideal for smaller workshops where space optimization is crucial. Its stable base and durable construction provide reliability and longevity, making it a practical investment for any woodworking setup.

In terms of mobility, the Grizzly G0548 features swivel casters that allow for easy maneuverability around the shop. This feature enables woodworkers to position the dust collector conveniently near various tools and machines to maximize efficiency.

For those looking to connect the dust collector directly to multiple machines, the G0548 includes a 4-inch intake port. This port allows for easy attachment to standard dust collection hoses, making it adaptable to different setups and configurations.

Overall, the Grizzly G0548 dust collector stands out for its powerful motor, efficient filtration system, compact design, and user-friendly features, making it an essential tool for any woodworking enthusiast aiming to create a cleaner and safer workshop environment. With its combination of technology and practicality, this dust collector is designed to enhance productivity and ensure superior dust management.
