Before starting the saw, make sure you
have performed the preceding assembly
and adjustment instructions, and you have
read through the rest of the manual and
are familiar with the various functions and
safety features on this machine. Failure to
follow this warning could result in serious
personal injury or even death!
Test Run
Once the assembly is complete, test run your
machine to make sure it runs properly and is
ready for regular operation.
The test run consists of verifying the following: 1)
The motor powers up and runs correctly and 2)
the stop button safety feature works correctly. For
the G0461 only, you must also make sure that the
motor turns the correct direction.
If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate
the source of an unusual noise or vibration,
stop using the machine immediately, then review
Troubleshooting on Page 43.
If you still cannot remedy a problem, contact our
Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 for assistance.
5. Verify that the machine is operating correctly
by turning it
ON.
—When operating correctly, the machine
runs smoothly with little or no vibration or
rubbing noises.
— Investigate and correct strange or unusual
noises or vibrations before operating the
machine further. Always disconnect the
machine from power when investigating or
correcting potential problems.
6. Turn the machine OFF.
7. Push the STOP button.
8. Press the green ON button. The machine
should not start.
—If the machine does not start, the STOP
button safety feature is working correctly.
—If the machine does start (with the stop
button pushed in), immediately disconnect
power to the machine. The STOP button
safety feature is not working correctly. This
safety feature must work properly before
proceeding with regular operations. Call
Tech Support for help.
9. FOR G0461 ONLY: Verify that the main
blade is turning the correct direction by start
-
ing the motor, then stopping the motor while
watching the main blade come to a stop.
— If the main blade turns clockwise (as stand
-
ing in front of the machine), it is turning in
the correct direction.
— If the main blade turns counterclockwise
(toward the rear of the machine), it is
turning in the wrong direction. Stop the
machine, disconnect it from power, then
exchange any two of the three power wires
in the terminal box. For additional help
with this, contact our Technical Support
Department at (570) 546-9663.
