    The motor will safely draw about 15 amps at 220V under load. If you operate the Model G8030 on any circuit that is already close to its capacity, it might blow a fuse or trip a circuit breaker.

  • Page 20: Spindle Base Adjustment

    It is safer to adjust the spindle base down to the correct depth of cut. If the spindle base is too low, you run the risk of the router bit hitting the table when activating the foot pedal. Adjust the spindle base to the highest set- ting before operating the router.

    Although it does not have a dedi- cated dust collection port, we recommend using a universal dust collector attachment such as the Grizzly G2754. Designed to hold a suction inlet as close to the cutting operation as possible without interfering with the machine movement, the dust collector will be able to eliminate most of the wood dust produced.
