5. Although the motor i s designed for operation on the
voltage and frequency specified on motor nameplate,
normal loads will be handled safely on voltages not
more than 10% above or below the narneplote voltage.
Heavy loads, however, require that voltage at motor
terminals be not less than the voltage specified on
nameplate.

Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incorrect
connections, overloading, reduced input voltage (which
results when small size wires are used in the supply
Always check connections, load and supply circuit when
the motor fails to perform satisfactorily. Check wire
sizes and lengths with the table in the next poragraph.
The followin g table lists recommended wire sizes for con-
necting the motor to the power source. These sizes should
be maintained for trouble-free operotion of the saw.
