Be sure your power supply agrees with the nameplate marking. AC Only means that your saw will operate on alternating current only. A voltage decrease of 10 percent or more will cause a loss of power and overheating. All DELTA tools are factory tested. If this tool does not operate, check the power supply.
STARTING AND STOPPING
Make sure that the switch is in the “OFF” position before plugging cord into outlet. Do not touch the plug’s metal prongs when unplugging or plugging in the cord.
The on/off switch (A) Fig. 31 is located at the front of the cuttinghead. To turn the saw “ON”, move the switch (A) up to the “ON” position. To turn the saw “OFF”, move the switch down to the “OFF” position.
