so I go to this ol' coots estate sale, and score a 35 year old sand blaster, and this grinder. BOTH in awesome condition. I have never used a grinder this powerful. Thing pulls serious amps while spinning up. Will run 220 or 110v. Anyone know this brand? Continental?

6amp, 3hp! :smokin:

Are you joking?

That grinder is meant to be run on 430 volts 3 phase:flipoff2:


























Kidding aside, that looks like exactly like my Duracraft. It *should* be 110v.
That data plate will tell you all sorts of useful information like: serial number, input volts, max. amp draw, and cycle.

hence how I new the amps/voltage etc etc..

I have just never heard of "continental" and a google search revealed nothing.

I see my mistake now. I interpretted "will run 220 or 110" as the question "is it 220 or 110?"
