Electrical Connections

WARNING!

All electrical connections must be done by a

qualified electrician!

Failure to comply may result in loss of

property and/or serious injury!

JWBS-16 is rated at 1-1/2 HP, 1Ph,
115V/230V, prewired 115V.

The bandsaw comes with a 115V plug (A, Fig.

If you switch the motor to 230V a plug

needs to be purchased for the bandsaw that
matches the 230V outlet you intend to use.

Confirm power at the site is the same as the
saw before making any electrical connections.
Review the wiring diagram on page 30.

Review “Grounding Instructions” on page 4,
“115 Volt Operation” also on page 4, and 230
Volt Operation on page 5.
