position.
4. Frequent opening of fuses or circuit breakers may result
if motor is overloaded, or if the motor circuit is fused
differently from recommendations, Overloading can
occur if you feed to rapidly or if your saw is misaligned
so that the blade heels. Do not use a fuse of greater
capacity without consulting a qualified electrician.
5. Although the motor is designed for operation on the
voltage and frequency specified on motor nameplate,
normal loads will be handled safely on voltages not
more than 10% above or below the nameplate voltage.
Heavy loads, however, require that voltage at motor
terminals equals the voltage specified on nameplate.
6. Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or
incorrect connections, overloading, reduced input
voltage (such as small size wires in the supply circuit) or
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.
NOTE: For circuits of greater length, the wire size must be
increased proportionately in order to deliver ample voltage
to the saw motor.
