Electrical Connections

Electrical connections must be made by a qualified electrician in compliance with all relevant codes. This machine must be properly grounded to help prevent electrical shock and possible fatal injury.

The 64A Tablesaw is equipped with a single phase, 115/230 volt motor. It is factory wired for 115 volts, but may be converted to 230 volt operation. Make sure the voltage of your power supply matches the specifications on the motor plate of the Tablesaw.

Grounding Instructions

1. All grounded, cord connected tools:

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.

Do not modify the plug provided - if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

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 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 understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.

Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3- prong grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the tool’s plug.

Repair or replace damage or worn cord immediately.

2.Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating less than 150 volts:

This tool is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Figure 1(A). The tool has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in (A).

A temporary adapter, which looks like the adapter illustrated in Figure 1(B&C), may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in (B) if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only until a properly grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician. (This adaptor is not applicable in Canada.)

The green-colored rigid ear, lug, and the like, extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box.

3.Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use on a supply circuit having a nominal rating between 150-250 volts, inclusive:

This cord is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet that looks like the one illustrated in Figure 1(D). The tool has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in (D). Make sure the tool is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter is available or should be used with this tool. If the tool must be reconnected for use on a different type of electric circuit, the reconnection should be made by qualified service personnel and after reconnection, the tool should comply with all local codes and ordinances.
