I have as new jointer. It has a 3 hp, 220v motor (that is very heavy and about broke my wrist today). No plug and they recommend NEMA 6-20P with 20 amp breaker. The only 220 outlet in my shop is 50 A and has a 3 blade receptical. The 50A breaker is completely incompatible with this machine right? I need to install a 20 A breaker and run line to new 6-20R right?
I have never done this before, but my breaker box has plenty of room and is 100 A service. It has the 50 A breaker that goes to outlet that has been used once of an old welder we brought from the farm. There are (3) 15 A breakers.
