-8- G5959/G9957 12" Table Saw
SECTION 2: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS
220V Single-Phase 220V Three-Phase
G5959 Only:
The Model G5959 has a 5 H.P., 3450 R.P.M.
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
G5959 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 cir-
cuit inspected by a qualified electrician.
In preparing to connect the Model G5959 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 4.
The Model G5959 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.

G9957 Only:
The Model G9957 has a 7

2 H.P., 3450 R.P.M.
motor which requires a 220V three-phase circuit.
The cord set enclosed 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 22 amps at 220V
under load. If you operate the Model G9957 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.
In preparing to connect the Model G9957 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 HBL2711 30A plug and
outlet shown in Figure 5.
The Model G9957 should be fused at 30 amps.
Fusing at amperage ratings higher than 30 amps
will not adequately protect the circuit. Make sure
