Motor Specifications
The AC motor used in this saw is a capacitor-start,
non-reversible type having the following specifica-
tions:
Rated H P..................................... _...... 5/8
Maximum Developed H P ................... t-1/8
Voltage ......................................... 120
Amperes ..................................... 7 9
Hertz (Cycles) ................................ 60
Phase ........................................... Single
RPM ....................................... 1725
Rotation of Shaft ........................ Clockwise
WARNING: TO AVOID ELECTRICAL HAZARDS,
FIRE HAZARDS, OR DAMAGE TO THE TOOL, USE
PROPER CIRCUIT PROTECTION. YOUR SAW IS
WIRED AT THE FACTORY FOR 120V OPERATION.
CONNECT TO A 120V, 15-AMP, BRANCH CIRCUIT
AND USE A 15-AMP FUSE OR CIRCUIT BREAKER.
TO AVOID SHOCK OR FIRE, IF POWER CORD tS
WORN OR CUT, OR DAMAGED IN ANY WAY,
HAVE IT REPLACED IMMEDIATELY.
IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED THIS POWER
TOOL CAN CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK
PARTICULARLY WHEN USED IN DAMP LOCA-
TIONS CLOSE TO PLUMBING. IF AN ELECTRICAL
SHOCK OCCURS THERE IS ALSO THE POTEN-
TIAL OF A SECONDARY HAZARD SUCH AS YOUR
HANDS CONTACTING THE SAWBLADE. NOT ALL
OUTLETS ARE PROPERLY GROUNDED. IF YOU
ARE NOT SURE THAT YOUR OUTLET IS PRO-
PERLY GROUNDED, HAVE IT CHECKED BY A
QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
Your unit has a plug that looks like the one shown
below

WARNING: TO MAINTAIN PROPER TOOL GROUND-
ING WHENEVER THE OUTLET YOU ARE PLAN-
NING TO USE FOR THIS POWER TOOL IS OFTHE
TWO PRONG TYPE, DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER
THE GROUNDING PRONG IN ANY MANNER=
It is recommended that you have a qualified electri--
clan replace the two prong outlet with a properly
grounded three prong outlet.
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 ventila-
tion.
1 This tool should be connected to a 120V, t5 amp
branch circuit with a 15 amp fuse or circuit
breaker Failure to use the proper size fuse can
result in damage to the motor
2 If the motor fails to start, turn the power switch to
the "OFF" position 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-Shooting Chart"
3 If the motor suddenly stafls while cutting wood,
turn the power switch off, unplug the tool, and
free the blade from the wood The motor may
now be restarted and the cut finished
,
Frequent "blowing" of fuses or tripping or circuit
breakers may result if:
a MOTOR IS OVERLOADED - Overloading can
occur if you feed too rapidly
b LOW VOLTAGE - Although the motor is de-
signed for operation on the voltage and fre-
quency specified on the motor nameplate,
normal loads will be handled safely on voltages
not more than 10% above or below the name-
plate voltage Heavy loads, however, require
that voltage at motor terminals equals the
voltage specified on nameplate
This power tool is equipped with a 3*conductor cord
and ground type plug listed by Underwriters' Labora-
tories, The ground conductor has a green jacket and
is attached to the tool housing at one end and to the
ground prong in the attachment plug at the other
end
This plug requires a mating 3-conductor grounded
type outlet as shown above,
