Curious if someone knows that exact answer. I'm guessing 12 amps on their first (slow) speed.

If approximate will do, find the fuse for them. The running current is probably half of that at most. That is, they probably pull 80% of the fuse size when starting and then drop to 50% when up to speed. Hmm ... complicated question given that they have three speeds.

Shop manual lists amp draw for each of the 3 speeds.
