mounting bracket, shift the spreader into alignment
with the saw blade, then retighten the two screws to
hold the bracket securely. Check to make sure the
spreader is aligned throughout its travel.
NOTE:
Periodically check, and maintain sharp
tips on the anti-kickback pawls.
IMPORTANT: If you experience any diffi-
culty in obtaining trouble-free sawing opera-
tions, refer to the trouble-shooting section in
this manual.

CAUTION: YOUR SAW IS WIRED FOR 120V
OPERATION. CONNECT TO A 120V, 15-AMP.
BRANCH CIRCUIT AND USE A 15-AMP., TIME-
DELAY FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER. IF THE
MOTOR IS RECOMMENDED FOR 240V OPERA-
TION, CONNECT TO A 15-AMP, BRANCH CIRCUIT
AND USE A 1B-AMP. TIME-DELAY FUSE OR CIR
CUlT BREAKER.

1, Changing Motor Connections
a. Unde_ normal home workshop usage, and if proper
(full voltage is supplied to the motor, your saw will
operate efficiently on 120V, as connected at the
factory. However, if any of the following conditions
exists, it wi!l be advisable for you to reconnect the
motor for 24OV operation - to obtain the efficiency
and I)erformance for which your saw is designed:
(1) Continuous heavy-duty operations.

(2) Either an undersized or an overloaded branch
circuit serving the saw motor.
(3) Low voltage supplied by the power source,
which the power company cannot correct.
Motor wiring connections for 120V (as made at the
factory) are described below. Necessary reconnec-
tions for 240V operation are also described follow-
ing. Whenever changing connections from 120V to
240V or vice-versa, make certain that a!l necessary
steps (including proper fusing of the branch circuit)
are completed.
2. Connections for 120V A.C. (Figure 31)
a. Remove nameplate cover from motor to expose
terminal board.
b. The wires inside of the motor must be connected as
follows:
(1) The orange-colored wire on number 6 terminal.
(2) The brown-colored wire on number 5 terminal.
c. Use the 120V power-cord plug furnished with your
saw.
