CHANGING THE MOTOR VOLTAGE
See Figures 37 and 38.
_1 WARNING: If you are unfamiliar with the basic
fundamentals of electricity do not attempt this
procedure. Use a qualified electrician to change
the voltage of the saw to avoid electric shock or
possibly a fire.
Your saw is set at the factory for 120V usage. See
Figure 37. Use extreme caution in changing to 240V,
as with any electrical procedure. Check the receptacle.
It must be a 220-240V, 15 amp, 3-blade unit -- con-
nected to a 240V AC power supply -- through a 240V
branch circuit -- with at least a 15 amp capacity -- and
protected by a 15 amp time-delay fuse or circuit
breaker. All attachment plugs and any receptacles
designed for 120 volt usage must be replaced with
devices rated for 240 volts.
WARNING: Never connect the plug to the
power source outlet until all assembly steps are
completed. Unplug the saw before changing any
connections.
• Open the motor connector box cover on the end of
the motor with a phillips screwdriver. Remove the
brown motor lead from terminal #2 and attach it to
the #3 terminal.
Note: The brown lead is not needed in 240V usage.
• Remove the yellow motor lead from terminal #1 and
attach it to terminal #2.
• Cut off the 120V power cord plug and replace it
with a three-blade 240V, 15 amp U.L. listed plug.
• Connect the power cord white and black leads to
the "hot" plug blade terminals.
• Connect the power cord green grounding wire to
the plug ground prong terminal.
• Close the motor connector box. Be careful to place
the power cord in the strain relief groove. Tighten
the box cover screws.
• Plug the saw into the appropriate 220-240V,
15 amp, 3-blade receptacle.
• Make sure the receptacle is connected to a 240V
AC power supply through a 240V branch circuit
having at least a 15 amp capacity and protected by
a time delay fuse or circuit breaker of the correct
size.
