Motor Specifications
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding pro-
vides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce
the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an elec-
tric cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a match-
ing outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accor-
dance with all local codes and ordinances.
This Scroll Saw is designed to use a 1700 RPM motor. It is
wired for operation on 110-120 volts, 60 Hz. alternating cur-
rent. 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 characteristics as
stamped on the scroll 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 grounded type
outlet protected by a 15-amp dual element time delay fuse
or circuit breaker.
Not all outlets are properly grounded. If you are not sure
that your outlet, as pictured in Fig. 1, is properly
grounded; have it checked by a qualified electrician.
To avoid electric shock, do not touch

Your unit is for use on 120 volts; it has a plug that looks
like the one in Figure 1.
FIG. 1
This power tool is equipped with a 3-conductor cord and
grounding type plug, approved by Underwriters
Laboratories and the Canadian Standards Association.
The ground conductor has a green jacket and is
attached to the tool housing at one end and to the
ground prong in the attachment plug at the other end.
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.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The con-
ductor with insulation having an outer surface that is
green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-
conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-
grounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if
the grounding instructions are not completely under-
stood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly
grounded.
Always use proper extension cord. The use of any exten-
sion cord will cause some loss of power. To keep this to
a minimum and to prevent overheating 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 tool's plug. Make sure
your extension cord is in good condition.
