Changing Motor Voltage

WARNING: Electric shock can kill. To reduce the risk of shock, never connect plug to power source outlet until all assembly steps are completed. Unplug saw before making or changing any connections.

NOTE: The saw is prewired at the factory for 120V operation. Use the following procedure to change motor voltage from 120V to 240V.

1.Unplug the saw.

2.Open the motor junction box cover located on the side of the motor.

3.Remove and discard the electrical tape from the wire connectors. Remove wire connectors.

4.Reconnect the leads as shown in the “Wiring Diagram” section on page 71 of this manual.

5.Reinstall the wire connectors and wrap with two layers of new U.L. listed electrical tape per wire connector.

6.Recheck your wiring to the wiring diagrams. Do this so you can be sure that the wiring is correct.

7.Reinstall the junction box cover.

8.Cut off the 120 volt power cord plug and replace it with a (3 blade) 240 volt, 15 amp U.L. listed plug. (See illustration of 240V plug & receptacle.) Connect the power cord white and black leads, respectively, to the “hot” plug blade terminals and connect the power cord green grounding wire to the plug ground prong terminal.

9.Plug your saw into a 220-240V, 15 amp, 3 blade receptacle.

10.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 of circuit breaker.
