ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
Your saw has a precision built electric motor. It should
be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60
Hz, AC only (normal household current). Do not
operate this tool on direct current (DC). A substantial
voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor
will overheat. If your saw does not operate when
plugged into an outlet, double-check the power supply.
