Grizzly G5959Z Saw User Manual


 
-8- G5959Z 12" Left-Tilting Table Saw
220V Single-Phase
The Model G5959Z has a 5 HP, 3450 RPM motor
which requires a 220V single-phase circuit. The
cord set included does not have a plug, as the
style of plug you require will depend upon the type
of service you currently have or plan to install. The
motor will safely draw about 30 amps at 220V
under load. If you operate the Model G5959Z 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
power failure still occurs, have the circuit inspect-
ed by a qualified electrician.
The Model G5959Z should be fused at 30 amps.
Fusing at amperage ratings higher than 30 amps
will not adequately protect the circuit. Make sure
that existing electrical wires are capable of han-
dling a 30 amp current. If unsure, seek the assis-
tance of a qualified electrician.

SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
In preparing to connect the Model G5959Z to your
existing or new circuit, it will be necessary to con-
nect a plug that matches your 220V receptacle. If
you will be installing a new receptacle and plug,
we recommend using a NEMA-style 6L-30 plug
and outlet shown in Figure 5.
