OVERLOAD PROTECTION
Your saw is equipped with a reset button (C) Fig. 28. If the motor stops or fails to start due to over-loading (cutting stock
too fast, using a dull blade, using the saw beyond its capacity, etc.) or low voltage, turn the switch to the “OFF” position.
Let the motor cool three to five minutes. Push the reset button (C) to reset the overload device. The motor can then be
started again in the usual manner.

OPERATION
STARTING AND STOPPING SAW
The on/off switch (A) Fig. 27 is located on the front of the saw cabinet. To turn the saw “ON”, move the switch (A) up
to the “ON” position. To turn the saw “OFF”, move the switch (A) down to the “OFF” position.
MAKE SURE THAT THE SWITCH IS IN THE “OFF” POSITION BEFORE PLUGGING IN THE POWER
CORD. IN THE EVENT OF A POWER FAILURE, MOVE THE SWITCH TO THE “OFF” POSITION. AN
ACCIDENTAL START-UP CAN CAUSE INJURY.
LOCKING SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION
IMPORTANT: When the tool is not in use, the switch should be locked in the “OFF” position to prevent
unauthorized use. To lock the tool, grasp the switch toggle (B) and pull it out of the switch (Fig. 28). With the switch
toggle (B) removed, the switch will not operate. However, should the switch toggle be removed while the saw is running,
the machine can be turned “OFF,” but cannot be restarted without re-inserting the switch toggle (B).
