G1006/G1007 Mill/Drill
-6-
110V Operation
SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
The Model G1006/G1007 can be fused at 20
amps. If the circuit breakers trip frequently, and
you have determined you are on a dedicated cir-
cuit with no other loads, it may be necessary to
upgrade to a 25 amp circuit. Contact a qualified
electrician to specifically determine the needs for
your shop.
You will find that the motor supplied with the
Mill/Drill is equipped with a reset button. If during
operation the reset button disengages power
from the motor, allow it to cool for five minutes.
Depress the button. It should stay down and the
motor should start by pressing the start switch. If
the reset button continues to deactivate the motor
or if it will not reset, call the Service Department.
Circuit Load/Reset
If you find it necessary to use an extension cord
with the Model G1006/G1007, make sure the
cord is rated Hard Service (grade S) or better.
Refer to the chart in Section 1: 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
Grounding
This equipment must be grounded. Verify
that any existing electrical outlet and circuit
you intend to plug into is actually ground-
ed. If it is not, it will be necessary to run a
separate 12 A.W.G. copper grounding wire
from the outlet to a known ground. Under
no circumstances should the grounding pin
from any three-pronged plug be removed.
Serious injury may occur.
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 hav-
ing an equipment-grounding conductor. See
Figure 1. The outlet must be properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
The Model G1006/G1007 is wired for 110V, sin-
gle phase operation. The 2 HP motor will draw 22
amps at 110V at maximum load. If you operate
this Mill/Drill on any circuit that is already close to
its capacity, it may 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 service department.
