220V Operation
G1022ZFX and G1022PRO:
The motors supplied with the Models G1022ZFX
and G1022PRO are prewired to operate at 220V.
The Models G1022ZFX and G1022PRO are not
supplied with a plug; therefore, a suitable 220V
plug must be wired in. When operating at 220V,
we recommend using a NEMA-style 6-15 plug
and outlet as shown in Figure 6A. 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 13 amps at 220V. We recommend a 15 amp cir-
cuit breaker for 220V operation. This should be
satisfactory for normal use while providing
enough protection against circuit damage caused
by power surges. Always check to see if your cur-
rent wires are capable of handling a 15 amp load.
If you are unsure, consult the advice of a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to modify an existing
circuit by replacing the circuit breaker with one
rated for a higher amperage.
