POWER SUPPLY
Motor Specifications
The AC motor used in this saw is a universal, nonre-
versible type having the following specifications:
Maximum Developed H.P .......................................... 2
Voltage ................................................................... 120
Amperes .................................................................. 10
Hertz (Cycles) ......................................................... 60
Phase .............................................................. Single
RPM .................................................................... 5000
Rotation of Shaft ......................................... Clockwise
Brake ............................................................ Automatic
WARNING: To avoid electrical hazards, fire haz-
ards, or damage, or damage to the tool, use
proper circuit protection. Your saw is wired at
the factory for 120v operation. Connect to a
f20v, 15-amp branch circuit and use a 15-amp
time delay fuse or circuit breaker. To avoid
shock or fire, if power cord is worn or cut, or
damaged in any way, have it replaced immedi-
ately.
DOUBLE INSULATED
The slide compound miter saw is intended for residen-
tian use only. It is double insulated to provide a double
thickness of insulation between you and the tool's
electrical system. All exposed metal parts are isolated
from the internal metal motor components with pro-
tecting insulation.
Your unit has a plug that looks like the one shown
below..
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical
shock, this appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit in
a polarized outlet only one way, f the p ug does
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse plug. If it still
does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to
install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug
in any way.
WARNING: Double insulation does not take the
place of normal safety precautions when operat-
ing this tool.
DANGER: To avoid electrocution:
1. Use only identical replacement parts when
servicing a tool with double insulation. Ser-
vicing should be performed by a qualified ser-
vice technician.
2. Do not use in rain or where floor is wet. This
tool is intended for indoor residual use only.
MOTOR SAFETY PROTECTION
CAUTION: To avoid motor damage, this motor
should be blown out or vacuumed frequently to
keep sawdust from interfering with normal
motor ventilation.
1. Connect this tool to a 120V, 15-amp branch circuit
with a 15-amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
Using the wrong size fuse can damage the motor.
2. If the motor won't start, release the trigger switch
immediately. UNPLUG THE TOOL Check the saw
blade to make sure it turns freely. If the blade is
free, try to start the motor again. If the motor still
does not start, refer to the "Motor Trouble-Shoot-
mg Chart."
3. If the motor suddenly stalls while cutting wood,
release the trigger switch, unplug the tool, and
free the blade from the wood. The motor may now
be restarted and the cut finished.
4. Fuses may "blow" or circuit breakers may trip fre-
quently if:
a. MOTOR IS OVERLOADED--Overloading can
occur if you feed too rapidly or make too many
start/stops in a short time.
b. Voltages net more than 10% above or below
the nameplate voltage can handle normal
loads. For heavy loads, however, the voltage at
motor terminals must equal the voltage speci-
fied on nameplate.
5. Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or
incorrect connections, overload, low voltage (such
as small size wire in the supply circuit) or to overly
tong supply circuit wire. Always check the connec-
tions, the load and the supply circuit whenever
motor doesn't work well. Check wire sizes and
length with the Wire Size Chart below,
WIRE SIZES
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent over-
heating and motor burn-out, use the table below to
determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G.) extension
cord.
