SECTION 3: 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 13 HP motor on the Model G9956 will draw the following amps:

110V Motor Draw

3 Amps

Circuit Breaker Requirements

Install your machine on a dedicated circuit to reduce the possibility of tripping the circuit break- er. If the circuit breaker frequently trips, have the circuit inspected by a qualified electrician. Never use a larger circuit breaker than stated below.

Grounding

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

This machine must have a ground prong in the plug to help ensure that it is grounded. DO NOT remove ground prong from plug to fit into a two-pronged outlet! If the plug will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Extension Cords

Make sure the cord is rated Standard Service (grade S) or better.

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

Use at least a 16 gauge cord.

DO NOT use a cord longer than 50 feet!
