to an overly long supply circuit. Always check the
connections, the load and the supply circuit, whenever
the motor fails to perform satisfactorily. Check wire
sizes and lengths with the table following.
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.
Use only 3 wire extension cords which have 3 prong
grounding type plugs and 3-pole receptacles which accept
the tools plug.
Length of the
Conductor
Up to 100 feet
100 feet to 200 feet
200 feet to 400 feet
Wire Size Required
(American Wire Gauge Number)
120 Volt Line
No. 12
No. 8
No. 6
NOTE: For circuits of greater length, the wire size must be
increased proportionately in order to deliver ample voltage
to the saw motor.

WARNING: REMOVE POWER CORD FROM POWER
SOURCE BEFORE TROUBLE SHOOTING.
Even' though the finest materials and precision
workmanship have been incorporated into your Craftsman
saw, it is reasonable to expect some wear after long periods
of use. Sooner or later, the metal to metal parts must wear
and will need take-up. Every metal to metal part on your
Craftsman saw can be taken up. In this way, the machine
can always be kept accurate and just as important, rigid.
The usual operating "troubles" are listed in the following
paragraphs with the necessary corrections listed.
LOOSENESS OF COLUMN TUBE IN COLUMN
SUPPORT -- ELEVATION CRANK OPERATES
ROUGHLY OR CHATTERS WHEN ROTATED.
Refer to Step two in Alignment Procedure Section.
Check for looseness (movement) of column tube in
column support.
2.
RADIAL SAW DOES NOT MAKE ACCURATE 0° or
45 ° MITER CROSSCUTS.
a. Looseness between column tube and column
support.
Align as described in Alignment Procedure Section
Step Two
b. Improper arm indexing at 0° crosscut.
Refer to precision indexing in operating controls
section.
c. Crosscut travel not properly adjusted.
Refer to Step Three in Alignment Procedure
Section Squaring Crosscut Travel.
