IMPORTANT: When the tool is not in use, the switch should be locked in the “OFF” position to prevent unauthorized use. Grasp the switch toggle (B) and pull it out as shown in Fig. 34. With the switch toggle (B) removed the switch will not operate. However, should the switch toggle be removed while the saw is running, it can be turned “OFF” once, but cannot be restarted without inserting the switch toggle (B).
OVERLOAD PROTECTION
Your saw is equipped with a reset overload relay button
(C)Fig. 34. If the motor shuts off or fails to start due to over-loading (cutting stock too fast, using a dull blade, using the saw beyond its capacity, etc.) or low voltage, turn the switch to the “OFF” position, let the motor cool three to five minutes and push the reset button (C), which will reset the overload device. The motor can then be turned on again in the usual manner.
