The Model G0609 motor draws the following amps under maximum load:
Motor Draw at 220V | 18 Amps |
Circuit Requirements
We recommend using a dedicated circuit for this machine. You MUST connect your machine to a grounded circuit that is rated for the amperage given below. Never replace a circuit breaker on an existing circuit with one of higher amper- age without consulting a qualified electrician to ensure compliance 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, consult a qualified electrician.

Plug/Receptacle Type
Grounding
In the event of an electrical short, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock. The grounding wire in the power cord must be properly connect- ed to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the outlet must be properly installed and ground- ed. All electrical 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 find it absolutely necessary to use an extension cord at 220V with your machine:
•Use at least a 12 gauge cord that does not exceed 50 feet in length!
