Always check to see if the wires in your circuit are capable of handling the amperage draw from your machine, as well as any other machines that could be operating on the same circuit. If you are unsure, consult a qualified electrician.
If the circuit breaker trips or the fuse blows regu- larly, your machine may be operating on a circuit that is close to its amperage draw capacity. However, if an unusual amperage draw does not exist and a power failure still occurs, contact a qualified electrician.
Grounding
Electrocution or a fire can result if the machine is not grounded correctly. Make sure all electrical circuits are grounded. DO NOT use the machine if it is not grounded.
In the event of an electrical short, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance to disperse electric cur- rent. This tool is equipped with a power cord that has an
220V Operation
We do not recommend the use of extension cords on 220V equipment. Instead, arrange the place- ment 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 Grizzly Planer:
•Make sure the cord is rated for Standard Service (grade S) or better.
•The extension cord must also contain a ground wire and plug prong.
•Use at least a 16 gauge cord if the cord is 50 feet long or less.
•Use at least a 14 gauge cord if the cord is between
