Circuit Requirements; 110V - Grizzly H3390 Instruction Manual

SECTION 3: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
110V Operation
If the machine is not wired correctly a fire
could result. Make sure your wiring, recep-
tacle, plug, and circuit breaker can handle
the amperage draw of the machine. If you
are not sure that your electrical circuit can
handle the amperage draw, get a qualified
electrician to test your electrical system
and do any required upgrades. DO NOT
attempt to modify an existing circuit by
only replacing the circuit breaker with one
rated for a higher amperage draw than the
wiring, receptacle, and plug are rated for.
The Model H3390 is wired to operate at 110V. A
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) must be
used at all times when using this saw. If an outlet
is not available that is equipped with a GFCI, use
a GFCI plug adapter between the saw power cord
and a properly grounded outlet. See Figure 1 for
a typical 110V plug and GFCI outlet.
Under normal 110V use, the Model H3390 motor
draws approximately 15 amps. Use a 20 amp cir-
cuit breaker or a 20 amp slow-blow fuse.

The circuit you use should be dedicated, (i.e., the
machine should provide the only draw from that
circuit). If frequent circuit failures occur when
using this machine, contact our Service
Department or your local electrical contractor.
