Motor Specifications

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to reduce the risk of electric
shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
a matching outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances. This saw is wired for operation on
110-120 volts, 60 Hz. alternating current. Before
connecting the motor cord to power source, make
certain the switch is in the "OFF" position and be
sure the electric current is of the same charac-
teristics as stamped on the table saw nameplate.

Connection To A Power Source

This machine must be grounded while in use to
protect the operator from electric shock.
Plug power cord into a 110-120V properly ground-
ed type outlet protected by a 15-amp dual ele-
ment time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
Not all outlets are properly grounded. If you are
not sure that your outlet, as pictured on this page,
is properly grounded; have it checked by a quali-
fied electrician.
To avoid electric shock, do not
touch the metal prongs on the
plug when installing or removing the plug to or
from the outlet.
Failure to properly ground this
power tool can cause electro-
cution or serious shock, particularly when used
near metal plumbing or other metal objects. If
shocked, your reaction could cause your hands
to hit the tool.
If power cord is worn, cut or
damaged in any way, have it
replaced immediately to avoid shock or fire haz-
ard.

one end and to the ground prong in the attach-
ment plug at the other end.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
If the outlet you are planning to use for this power
tool is of the two-prong type, DO NOT REMOVE
OR ALTER THE GROUNDING PRONG IN ANY
MANNER. Have a qualified electrician replace
the TWO-prong outlet with a properly grounded
THREE-prong outlet. Do not use any adapter
plugs.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.
The conductor with insulation having an outer
surface that is green with or without yellow stripes
is the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is nec-
essary, do not connect the equipment grounding
conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service per-
sonnel if the grounding instructions are not com-
pletely understood, or if in doubt as to whether
the tool is properly grounded.

Extension Cords

cords can shock, burn or electrocute.
extension cords which have 3-prong ground-
ing type plugs and 3-pole receptacles which
accept the tool's plug. If an extension cord is
necessary, a cord with adequate size conductors
should be used to prevent excessive voltage
drop, loss of power or overheating. The table
shows the correct size to use, depending on cord
length and nameplate amperage rating of tool. If
in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. Always use
U.L. and CSA listed extension cords.
