SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS

110V Operation

Serious personal injury could occur if you connect the machine to the power source before you have completed the set up pro- cess. DO NOT connect the machine to the power source until instructed to do so.

Amperage Draw

The Model G0604 motor draws the following amps under maximum load:

Maximum Load

13 Amps

Circuit Requirements

We recommend connecting this machine to a dedicated circuit with a verified ground, using the circuit size given below. Never replace a circuit breaker with one of higher amperage without con- sulting a qualified electrician to ensure compli- ance with wiring codes. If you are unsure about the wiring codes in your area or you plan to connect your machine to a shared circuit, you may create a fire hazard—consult a qualified electrician to reduce this risk.

Recommended Circuit Size

15 Amps

Grounding

In the event of an electrical short, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with a power cord that has a grounding wire, which must be properly connected to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the outlet must be properly installed and grounded. All elec- trical connections must be made in accordance with local codes and ordinances.

Electrocution or fire could result if this machine is not grounded correctly or if your electrical con- figuration does not com- ply with local and state codes. Ensure compliance by checking with a quali- fied electrician!

Extension Cords

We do not recommend the use of extension cords. Instead, arrange the placement of your equipment and the installed wiring to eliminate the need for extension cords.

If you must use an extension cord at 110V with your machine:

Plug/Receptacle Type

Included Plug/Receptacle ................ NEMA 5-15

Figure 1. NEMA 5-15 plug and receptacle.

G0604 6" X 56" Jointer

Use at least a 14 gauge cord that does not exceed 50 feet in length!

The extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug pin.

Avoid cords over 50 feet long unless they have been sized by a qualified electrician.
