220V Operation

 

Circuit Load

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Ultimate Series Jointers have a 3 H.P., 3450 R.P.M. motor which requires a 220V single-phase circuit. The cord set enclosed does not have a plug as the style of plug you require will depend upon the type of service you currently have or plan to install. The motor will safely draw about 15 amps at 220V under load. If you operate the Ultimate Series Jointers on any circuit that is already close to its capacity, it might blow a fuse or trip a circuit breaker. However, if an unusual load does not exist, and power failure still occurs, have the circuit inspected by a qualified electri- cian.

When operating at 220V, we recommend using a NEMA-style 6-15 plug and outlet. See Figure 1. You may also “hard-wire” the machine directly to your panel, provided you place a disconnect switch near the machine. Check the electrical codes in your area for specifics on wiring require- ments.

Under normal use, the motor draws approximate- ly 15 amps at 220V. We recommend a 15 amp cir- cuit breaker for 220V operation. This should be satisfactory for normal use while providing enough protection against circuit damage caused by power surges. Always check to see if your cur- rent wires are capable of handling a 15 amp load. If you are unsure, consult the advice of a qualified electrician.
