Well, as I expected, I got a BS answer.
First they said it pulls more on start up. We all know that. That is why the thermal delay in breakers.
Then they said to use a 25 foot 14 gauge extension cord to drop the voltage and limit the current.
I suggested it should have the option to run it on 220, and her answer was I need a step down transformer. Heck, even my old Craftsman RAS could be wired for 220.
In other words, they are admitting their specifications/advertising are fraudulent and it needs a 30A 110 circuit to operate fully and safely if you are planning more than a 3 inch piece of soft pine.
I am not saying this is a bad machine. I am still considering one. But I am also considering running a 30 A line to where I will plug it in. It is not suitable to run on a 20A 10 circuit as they specify.
