Slightly OT - Table saw and dust collector
Hey all,
I work in a shop that uses a table saw and there is a dedicated dust collector attached. The pain in the butt comes in when turning them both on, you have to turn each on separately and the switches aren't next to each other. The saw runs on 3 phase 240, the Dust collector is single phase 120 (can be rewired to 240). The saw has a magnetic switch with extra contacts. I was thinking of wiring a female end of an extension cord into the saw's switch to plug the d.c. into. What's the preferred way of getting 120 or 220 single phase from the 3 phase coming into the switch? Thanks, Eide |
