Too much starting current. Wire them up so that the two items (both
115 volt?) are on different 15 amp circuits. It may take a bit of
(safe) jiggery-pokery for the vacuum switch on one tool to start up
the electrcity to the other tool (the dust collector motor which is
wired to a different supply.
I have exactly this set up, with a 230 volt table saw and then an
arrangement to start up a 115 volt vacuum dust collector, which is not
yet installed! Right now I can plug in a 115 volt window fan that then
starts 'automatically' when the 230 volt bench saw is running.
Naturally the 230 volt and the 115 volt supplies are on different
circuits/breakers.
