Jet 1442 Problem
I'd solve the problems one at a time. Why does the motor not work? As
I remember, it doesn't work on a non-GFI circuit either?

Capacitor start motors are notorious for tripping GFI receptacles. GFI
receptacles are typically designated for use with portable hand held
tools, which a lathe is not.
Do you think I would be better off removing the GFI receptacle and
installing a GFI breaker instead?
The garage is on one breaker, and the gfi is upstream of the rest of the
receptacles. Are the GFI breakers less finiky than the receptacles?
I should probably just put in a sub panel, but I don't think I have the
room.
thanks,
Joe
