Use proper extension cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition and is a 3-wire extension
cord which has a 3-prong grounding type plug and matching receptacle which will accept the machine’s plug. When using
an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current of the machine. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage, resulting in loss of power and overheating. Fig. D, shows the correct gauge to use depending on
the cord length. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

saw as illustrated in Fig. C. Contact your local
Authorized Delta Service Center or qualified electrician
for proper procedures to install the plug. The saw must
comply with all local and national electrical codes after
the 240 volt plug is installed.
The saw with a 240 volt plug should only be connected
to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug
illustrated in Fig. C. No adapter is available or should be
used with the 240 Volt plug.
IN ALL CASES, MAKE CERTAIN THE
RECEPTACLE IN QUESTION IS PROPERLY
GROUNDED. IF YOU ARE NOT SURE HAVE A
QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN CHECK THE RECEPTACLE.
