Jason,

No issues at all so far.(should I have said that?) Most of the work we've
been doing is large commercial. I invested a couple of bucks with a local
electrician. We made several pig-tails. I also bought a box of assorted
50amp breakers. When we have a job scheduled, I drop off the tails that
the electrician plugs into the panel and provide the breaker. So far so
good. The machine works great on everything I've tried. Excellent on
terrazzo and concrete though. I'm hoping for a 36" next year, we'll see.
Keep in touch.

Ron
