TROUBLE SHOOTING -- MOTOR

NOTE Motors used on wood-working tools are particular y susceptib!e to the accumulation of sawdust and wood chips and should be blown out or vacuumed' frequently to prevent

interference with, normal motor ventilation and proper operation of the centrifugally-

operated starting switch.
