This is a question based on "Just curios " than need.
Looking at Grizzly bandsaws. The model G0513 and the model G0513X2. Each has the exact same motor, 2hp. But the G0513 recommends a 10 amp Circuit and the G0513x2 a 15 amp circuit.
Now the G0513 has aluminum wheels. The G0513x2 has cast iron wheels.
Would the cast iron wheels need more amps to get going?
