I have another question regarding power. I've been running it all winter and really getting the hang of it, love this grinder!. My only problem with the KMG is that after about 5-10 minutes of continual use it trips the power strip that I have it plugged into. I'm definitely not overworking the machine, happens even during light sanding. It's never tripped the Leeson breaker that is built-in to the switch box. I'm using a "Monster" brand power strip which is supposed to be rated for "equipment" but I am not sure if it's up to the task. Perhaps there is a specific rating of power strip I should be using... or... is this to be expected?
115V Model. Any advice much appreciated.
