Motor
To avoid motor damage this motor should be
blown out or vacuumed frequently
to prevent
sawdust buildup which will interfere with nor-
mal motor ventilation.
3. As soon as the red button will click into
running position, the saw may be started and
operated normally.
4. Frequent
blowing of fuses or tripping of cir-
cuit breakers may result if:
Your saw is equipped
with a manual reset
button designed to open the power line cir-
cuit when the motor temperature
exceeds a
safe level, motor is overloaded,
or a low volt-
age condition exists. (Figure 186)

1. If the protector
opens the line and stops
the saw motor, immediately
turn the saw
switch off, remove the yellow key, and allow
the motor to cool.
• Motor
is overloaded:
Overloading
can
occur if you feed too rapidly
or if saw is
misaligned
so that the blade heels.
• Motor circuit is fused differently from
recommendations:
Always follow in-
structions for the proper fuse/breaker.
Do not use a fuse/breaker
of greater
capacity without consulting a qualified
electrician.
.Low
voltage:
Although
the motor is
designed
for operation
on the voltage
and frequency
specified
on the
nameplate,
normal
loads will be band-
led safely on voltages
not more than
10% above or below the nameplate
voltage.
Heavy loads, however,
require
that voltage
at motor
terminals
equal
the voltage
specified
on nameplate.
.Improper
extension
cord size.
2. After
cooling
to a safe operating
tempera-
ture, the overload
protector
can be closed
manually
by pushing
the red button
on the
top of the motor.
If the red button
will not
click into place immediately,
the motor is still
too hot and must be allowed
to cool for a
while longer.
The motor
may take as long to cool as it did
for the heat to build up. An audible
click
when you push the red button
will indicate
that the protector
is closed (reset)
and the
saw is ready for use.
