Motor Specifications and Electrical Requirements (Continued)
DANGER: To avoid electrocution:
1. Use only identical replacement parts when
servicing a tool with double insulation.
Servicing should be performed by a qualified
service technician.
2. Do not use in rain or where floor is wet,
This tool is intended for indoor residential use
only.
Motor Safety Protection
IMPORTANT: To avoid motor damage, this motor
should be blown out or vacuumed frequently to keep
sawdust from interfering with normal motor ventilation.
1 Connect this tool to a 120v, 15-amp branch circuit
with a 15-amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
Using the wrong size fuse can damage the motor
2. If the motor won't start, release the trigger switch
immediately UNPLUG THE TOOL, Check the saw
blade to make sure it turns freely, If the blade is free,
try to start the motor again if the motor still does not
start, refer to the "Motor Trouble-Shooting Chart."
3,. If the motor suddenly stalls while cutting wood,
release the trigger switch, unplug the tool, and free
the blade from the wood. The motor may now be
restarted and the cut finished.
4. Fuses may "blow" or circuit breakers may trip fre-
quently if:
a. ,,,,.,,v, is Overloaded-Overloading can occur if
you feed too rapidly or make too many start!stops
in a short time,
b Line voltages are more than 10% above or below
the nameplate voltage For heavy loads, however,
the voltage at motor terminals must equal the volt-
age specified on nameplate
5. Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incor-
rect connections, overload, low voltage (such as
small size wire in the supply circuit) or to overly tong
supply circuit wire. Always check the connections,
the load and the supply circuit whenever motor
doesn't work well Check wire sizes and length with
the Wire Size Chart below
Wire Sizes
NOTE: Make sure the proper extension cord is used
and is in good condition.
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power, To keep this to a minimum and to prevent over-
heating and motor burn-out, use the table below to
determine the minimum wire size (A W G) extension
cord,
