G1019 14'' Bandsaw -5-
110V Operation
SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
The motor supplied with the Model G1019 is a
dual-voltage 110V or 220V motor prewired for
110V. Under 110V use, the motor draws approxi-
mately 12 amps. We recommend a 15 amp circuit
breaker for 110V. This should be satisfactory for
normal use, while providing enough protection
against circuit damage caused by power surges.
Grizzly recommends that the circuit you use
should be dedicated, (i.e., the Model G1019
should provide the only draw from that circuit). If
frequent circuit failures occur when using the
bandsaw, contact our service department or your
local electrical contractor.
220V Operation
The motor supplied with the Model G1019 can be
rewired to operate at 220V. See enclosed wiring
diagram for details.
If converting to operate at 220V, a suitable 220V
plug must be wired in. When operating at 220V,
we recommend using a NEMA-style 6L-15 plug
and outlet. See Figure 2. You may also “hard-
wire” the machine directly to your panel, provided
you place a disconnect switch near the machine.
Check the electrical codes in your area for
specifics on wiring requirements.
Under normal use, the motor draws approximate-
ly 6 amps at 220V. We recommend a 15 amp cir-
cuit breaker. This should be satisfactory for nor-
mal use while providing enough protection
against circuit damage caused by power surges.
