MODEL 113.197150 ONLY
Changing Motor Voltage
A DANGER: To avoid electric shock unplug the saw before changing motor voltage.
Under normal home workshop usage, and if
full voltage is supplied to the motor, your saw
will operate efficiently on 120V, as connected
at the factor);. However, if any of the follow-
ing conditions exist, it will be advisable for
you to have a qualified electrician reconnect
the motor for 240V operation:
• Heavy duty operations.
.Either an undersized or an overloaded
branch circuit serving the saw motor.
• Low voltage supplied by the power
source, which the power company can-
not correct.
The procedures for changing the motor volt-
age (factory set for 120V) are described
below. These instructions should be followed
_.._Dual Voltage Switch
Fig. 135 - Dual Voltage Switch
3. Replace the 120V power cord plug with a
240V, 15 AMP, 3-blade plug. (Figure 136)
by a qualified electrician only.
Note: Whenever changing the switch position
from 120V to 240V or vice versa, make cer-
tain that all necessary steps (including proper
fusing of the branch circuit) are completed.
Connection for 120V A.C.
1. Remove motor coverpanel at blade end of
motor.
2. Using a small screwdriver, slide dual volt-
age switch to 120V position. Then replace
motor cover panel.
3. Use 120V power cord furnished with the
saw.
Connection for 240V A.C.
1. Remove motor coverpanel at blade end of
nlotor.
