110V Operation

SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS

The Model G4015Z Lathe/Mill is wired for 110
volt, single phase operation. The

H.P. motor

will safely draw 8.7 amps at 110V. A 10-amp fuse
or circuit breaker should be used when connect-
ing this combination lathe/mill to power. Circuit
breakers rated any higher are not adequate to
protect the circuit. Always check to see if the
wires in the circuit are capable of handling a 8.7
amp load. If you are unsure, consult a qualified
electrician.

If you operate this lathe/mill 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 a power failure still
occurs, contact a qualified electrician or our ser-
vice department.

If you find it necessary to use an extension cord
with the Model G4015Z, make sure the cord is
rated Hard Service (grade S) or better. Refer to
the chart in the standard safety instructions to
determine the minimum gauge for the extension
cord. The extension cord must also contain a
ground wire and plug pin. Always repair or
replace extension cords when they become worn
or damaged.

Extension Cords

Potential for electrical
shock hazard, this equip-
ment must be grounded.
Verify that any existing
electrical outlet and cir-
cuit you use are actually
grounded. If not, it will be
necessary to run a sepa-
rate 12 A.W.G. copper
grounding wire from the
outlet to a known ground.
If not grounded properly,
serious personal injury
may occur.
