great frickin video!!! Love to see you talk about buck + boost on electricity as when you get into these remote locations it becomes important so you don’t do damage to your machines
Hello, I used to work with my dad doing floors and he would connect the Hummel machine directly into the homeowners electrical panel. I was always afraid to do that since I got blasted one time and he said the way to do it was to count every other breaker because they can’t connect to the same one. Can you do a demonstration or a video talking about how to connect them safely so I don’t explode myself? My dad’s not around to show me anymore. Greatly appreciate your video I noticed you can plug into a dryer outlet or something too but does that give all the power the machine needs? I’m trying to get back into flooring
Hey Daniel, in my experience a dryer or kitchen stove outlet will give you all the power you need. Go to a hardware store and buy 3-4 plug configurations for dryer & stove outlets. Then wire on the plug your 220 volt big machine uses. Now you will have adapters that will work in most homes. I agree with you…. Don’t wire directly into a power panel!!!
@@WyomingWoodFloors thanks for the response! That’s the only way he would do it so I never knew that was the better option. Appreciate your quick response
At 14 mins you mentioned that the 4 prong dryer adapter will work on a stove. I'm sorry but this isn't true. The dryer is a 30AMP hardware with an "L" shaped neutral prong, whereas the stove is a 50AMP hardware with a blade style neutral prong. The 30AMP will not plug into the 50AMP outlet, but it can be modified. Either use a something to file or cut the "L" shaped prong into a blade, or, since it's not being used, cut it off completely. Excellent video as always! Thank you!
Thank you! Been using the small ez8 sander for a long time but I bought a Hummel that didn’t come with no cords. It’s time to step it up but I know nothing about the cords. 🫡
