Default Dust collector power question

I got a steal (maybe) on a Jet dust collector. The tag says it draws 23
amps, which I assume is the peak amperagw on start up. I have a new 30
amp circuit in the shop. It's popping the 30 amp fuse each time I try
to start her up. Any ideas? I need to get my $2/BF 4/4 clear walnut
(minor gloat) cleaned up and the planer is spitting shavings all over
the shop, some of which I managed to track across SWMBO's rug. Not
pleased with me, is she. She fails to see the value in me spending six
of what we used to call boat units on this set up when I could buy
perfectly good finished stock at the lumber yard.
