NOTE: The adapter iliustrated is for use only if you
already have a properly grounded 2-prong receptacle.
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of
power. To keep this to a minimum and to prevent
overheating and motor bum-out, use the following table
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-prong receptacles which
accept the plug on the saw.
1 H.P. MOTR 110-120V
Extension Cord
Length Wire Size A.W.G.
0 - 25 Feel No. 16
26 - 50 Feet No. 14

CHECK MOTOR ROTATION
The motor must rotate CLOCKWISE when viewed from
the shaft end to which you will mount the pulley. {See
page 21.) If it does not, do not assemble or use saw until
motor with right rotation is installed.
