TROUBLE SHOOTING -- MOTOR
NOTE: Motors used on wood-working tools are particularly
susceptible to the accumulation of sawdust and wood chips
and should be blown out or "vacuumed" frequently to
)revent interference with normal motor ventilation.
NOTE: The starting relay is a GRAVITY SENSITIVE
TYPE. NEVER TURN THE POWER ON WHILE THE SAW
IS UPSIDE DOWN AS THIS WILL DAMAGE THE
MOTOR.
TROUBLE
Excessive noise.
PROBABLE CAUSE
1. Motor.
Motor fails to develop
full power. (Power
output of motor decreases
rapidly with decrease in
voltage at motor terminals.
For example, a reduction
of 10% in voltage causes
a reduction of 19% in
maximum power output
of which the motor is
capable, while a reduction
of 20% in voltage causes
a reduction of 36% in
maximum power output.)
1. Circuit overloaded with
lights, appliances and
other motors.
2. Undersize wires or circuit
too long.
3. General overloading of
power company
facilities. (In some
sections of the
country, demand for
electrical power may
exceed the capacity
of existing generating
and distribution systems.)
4. Incorrect fusesor circuit
breakers in power line.
REMEDY
!. Have motor checked by qualified service
technician. Repair serviceis available at
your nearest Sears store.
1. Do not useother appliances or motors on
samecircuit when using the saw.
2. Increase wire sizes,or reduce length of wiring.
See "Motor Specification and Electrical
Requirements" section,
3. Request avoltage check from the power company.
4. Install correct fusesor circuit breakers.
