Electrical Connections; Extension Cords - Jet JMS-10X Operating Instructions And Parts Manual

Figure 6-6
Important: Make sure blade size and arbor hole
match specification of miter saw.
9. Install new blade. Rotation arrow on blade must
match clockwise rotation arrow on upper guard,
and the blade teeth must point downward.
10. Place flange outer flange against blade and on
arbor. Thread arbor bolt onto arbor in
counterclockwise direction.
Important: Make sure flat edge inside flange
opening is aligned with flat edge on arbor shaft.
Also, the flat -side of the flange must be placed
against blade.
6. Press and hold arbor lock (Figure 6-5) while
rotating blade until arbor lock engages.
7. Tighten arbor bolt.
8. Rotate cover plate back to original position, until
slot in cover plate engages completely with
cover plate screw (K, Figure 6-3). While holding
lower blade guard up as shown in Figure 6-3,
tighten screw.
9. Lower blade guard and verify that it operates
smoothly without binding or sticking.
Never use saw without cover
plate securely in place and screw tightened
down. Failure to comply may cause serious
injury.
If arbor bolt should accidentally loosen, the cover
plate prevents it from falling out, and helps prevent
the spinning blade from coming off the saw.
Verify that the flanges are clean
and properly installed. Lower the blade into the
table and verify that it does not come into
contact with the base, table, or table inserts.
Failure to comply may cause serious injury.

7.0 Electrical connections

To avoid electrical hazards, fire
hazards, or damage to the machine, use proper
circuit protection. Your saw is wired at the
factory for 115V operation. Connect to a 120V,
15 Amp circuit and use a 15 amp time delay fuse
or circuit breaker. If power cord is worn or cut,
or damaged in any way, have it replaced
immediately to avoid shock or fire.
Before connecting to power source, be sure switch
is in off position.
This machine is double insulated to provide a double
thickness of insulation between the user and the
machine's electrical system. All exposed metal parts
are isolated from the internal metal motor
components with protective insulation.
This saw has a plug that looks like the one shown in
Figure 7-1.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this saw has
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way; if
the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not alter
the plug in any way.
Double insulation does not take the place of normal
safety precautions when operating this tool.
To avoid electrocution:
1. Use only identical replacement parts when
servicing a tool with double insulation. Servicing
should be performed by a qualified technician.
2. Do not use power tools in wet or damp locations
or expose them to rain or snow.

7.1 Extension cords

The use of extension cords is discouraged; try to
position equipment within reach of the power
source. If an extension cord becomes necessary, be
sure it is heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a
drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and
overheating.
Table 3 shows recommended size to use depending
on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the
gauge number, the heavier the cord.
