SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
220V Single-Phase
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 G0659 motor draws the following amps under maximum load:
Motor Draw | 8 Amps |
Power Supply Circuit Requirements
We recommend connecting your machine to a dedicated and grounded circuit that is rated for the amperage given below. Never replace a circuit breaker on an existing circuit with one of higher amperage without consulting a qualified electri- cian 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.
Minimum Circuit Size | 15 Amps |
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 connected to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the outlet must be properly installed and grounded. All electrical connections must be made in accor- dance with local codes and ordinances.
Electrocution or fire could result if this machine is not grounded correctly or if your electrical config- uration does not comply with all applicable codes. Ensure compliance by checking with a qualified 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 exten- sion cord at 220V with your machine:
