Changing Motor Connections
a.
Under normal home workshop usage, and if proper
(full) voltage is supplied to the motor, your saw will
operate
efficiently
on
120V,
as
connected
at
the
factory. However, if any of the following conditions
exists, it will be advisable for you to reconnect the
motor
for
240V
operation
—
to
obtain
the
efficiency and performance for which your saw is
designed:
(1) Heavy-duty operations.
(2) Either an undersized or an overloaded branch
circuit serving the saw motor.
(3) Low voltage supplied by the power source,
which the power company cannot correct.
b.
Motor wiring connections for 120V [as made at the
factory)
are
described
below.
Necessary
reconnections for 240V operation are also described
following.
Whenever
changing
connections
from
120V to 240V or vice-versa, make certain that a//
necessary
steps
(including
proper
fusing
of
the
branch circuit) are completed.

terminal board.
b.
The wires inside of the motor must be connected as
shown:

Connections for 240V A.C.
a.
The wires inside the motor terminal box must be
connected as follows:
(1) The orange-colored wire on number 8 terminal.
(2) The brown-colored wire on number 7 terminal.
b.
Replace the 120V power-cord plug with a (3-biade)
240V
plug,
connecting
the
power-cord
white
and
black
leads,
respectively,
to
the
two
"hot"
plug
blades — and connecting the power-cord grounding
wire to the plug ground prong.
d.
Make certain the receptacle is connected to a 240V
A-C
power
supply
through
a
240V
branch
circuit
having at least a 15-amp, capacity, and protected by
a 15-amp. time-delay fuse or circuit breaker.
MOTOR SAFETY PROTECTION
NOTE: This motor should be blown out, or "vacuumed",
frequently
to
prevent
sawdust
interference
with
normal
motor ventilation.
Your
saw
motor
is
equipped
with
a
manual-reset,
thermal-overload
protector
designed
to
open
the
power-line
circuit when the motor temperature exceeds a safe value.
1. If the protector opens the line and stops the saw motor,
immediately
press
the
saw
switch
to
the
"OFF"
position, and allow the motor to cool.
