Motor Specifications and Electrical Requirements

Power Supply and Motor Specifications

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical hazards,
fire hazards, or damage, or damage to the tool, use
proper circuit protection. Your saw is wired at the
factory for operation using the voltage shown.
Connect tool to a power line with the appropriate
voltage and a 15-amp branch circuit. Use a 15-amp
time delay fuse or circuit breaker. To reduce the
risk of shock or fire, if power cord is worn or cut,
or damaged in any way, have it replaced immedi-
ately.

General Electrical Connections

DANGER: To reduce the risk of electrocution:
1. Use only identical replacement parts when ser-
vicing. Servicing should be performed by a qual-
ified service technician.
2. Do not use in rain or where floor is wet.
This tool is intended for indoor residential use
only.

110-120 Volt, 60 Hz. Tool Information

Double Insulated
The miter saw is double insulated to provide a double
thickness of insulation between you and the tool's electri-
cal system. All exposed metal parts are isolated from the
internal metal motor components with protecting insula-
tion.
Polarized Plug
Your unit has a plug that looks like the one shown.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this appliance has
a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This
plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way, if the plug
does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse plug. If it still does
not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper
outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.

Motor Safety Protection

IMPORTANT: To avoid motor damage, this motor should
be blown out or vacuumed frequently to keep sawdust
from interfering with normal motor ventilation.
1. Connect tool to power line with the appropriate voltage
for your model and 15-amp branch circuit with a 15-
amp time delay fuse or circuit breaker. Using the wrong
size fuse can damage the motor.
2. If the motor won't start, release the trigger switch
immediately and unplug the tool. Check the saw blade
to make sure it turns freely. If the blade is free, try to
start the motor again. If the motor still does not start,
refer to the "Motor Trouble-Shooting Chart."
3. If the motor suddenly stalls while cutting wood, release
the trigger switch, unplug the tool, and free the blade
from the wood. The motor may now be restarted and
the cut finished.
The AC motor used in this saw is a universal, nonre-
versible type having the following specifications:
Amperes
Voltage
Hertz (Cycles)
Phase
RPM
Shaft Rotation (blade end) Clockwise
Brake
WARNING Do not permit fingers to touch the termi-
nals or plug when installing or removing the plug
to or from the outlet.
If power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way, have
it replaced immediately.
WARNING: Double insulation does not take the
place of normal safety precautions when operating
this tool.
4. Fuses may "blow" or circuit breakers may trip fre-
quently for the following reasons:
a. Motor Is Overloaded-Overloading can occur if you
feed too rapidly or make too many start/stops in a
short time.
b. Line voltages are more than 10% above or below the
nameplate voltage. For heavy loads, however, the
voltage at motor terminals must equal the voltage
specified on nameplate.
c. Improper or dull sawblade is used.
5. Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or incorrect
connections, overload, low voltage (such as small size
wire in the supply circuit) or to overly long supply circuit
wire. Always check the connections, the load and the
supply circuit whenever motor doesn't work well. Check
wire sizes and length with the Wire Size Chart.
