I'm no sparktrician but the sparktricians I work with say that GFCIs are not designed for electrical motors and shouldn't be used with such.

I have a whole bunch of power tools that don't have GFCIs built in, as long as they have a three pronged plug I figure I'm OK.

Hopefully some sparktrical engineers will chime in on the subject and correct me iffn I'm wrong.
