INSTALLATION
(Continued from page 9)
• Do not use a 3-prong to 2-prong grounding adapter unless
permitted by local and national codes and ordinances.
• (A 3-prong to 2-prong grounding adapter is not permitted
in Canada.) Where permitted, the rigid green tab or terminal
on the side of the adapter must be securely connected
to a permanent electrical ground such as a properly
grounded water pipe, a properly grounded outlet box or a
properly grounded wire system.
• Many cover plate screws, water pipes and outlet boxes are
not properly grounded. To ensure proper ground, grounding
means must be tested by a qualified electrician.
EXTENSION CORDS
• The use of any extension cord will cause some drop in
voltage and loss of power.
• Wires of the extension cord must be of sufficient size to
carry the current and maintain adequate voltage.
• Use the table below to determine the minimum wire size
(A.W.G.)
extension cord.
• Use only 3-wire extension cords having 3-prong grounding
type plugs and 3-pole receptacles which accept the tool
plug.
• If the extension cord is worn, cut, or damaged in any way,
replace it immediately.

STARTING AND STOPPING THE SAW
Refer to figure 21 on page 11.
WARNING: Never operate saw without blade guards in
place. Be sure blade is not in contact with workpiece when
motor is started. Start motor and allow saw to come to full
speed.
WARNING: Make sure the electrical characteristics of motor
nameplate and power source are the same.
• The ON/OFF switch is located on the front of the saw body.
• To turn saw on, stand to either side of the blade—never
inline with it. Press the Green ON button. Always allow saw
blade to come up to full speed before cutting.
• Do not turn motor switch ON and OFF rapidly. This action
overheats the motor and may cause saw blade to loosen.
• Never leave saw unattended while the power is on.
• To turn the table saw off, press the Red OFF button.
Never leave saw unattended until the blade has come to a
complete stop.
The saw can be locked from unauthorized use by locking
the switch. See FIG. 22 on page eleven.
