Test Run

Once the assembly is complete, test run your machine to make sure it runs properly and is ready for regular operation.

The test run consists of verifying the following: 1) The motor powers up and runs correctly and 2) the stop button safety feature works correctly. For the G0461 only, you must also make sure that the motor turns the correct direction.

If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, stop using the machine immediately, then review Troubleshooting on Page 43.

If you still cannot remedy a problem, contact our Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 for assistance.

Before starting the saw, make sure you have performed the preceding assembly and adjustment instructions, and you have read through the rest of the manual and are familiar with the various functions and safety features on this machine.

5.Verify that the machine is operating correctly by turning it ON.

—When operating correctly, the machine runs smoothly with little or no vibration or rubbing noises.

—Investigate and correct strange or unusual noises or vibrations before operating the machine further. Always disconnect the machine from power when investigating or correcting potential problems.

6.Turn the machine OFF.

7.Push the STOP button.

8.Press the green ON button. The machine should not start.

—If the machine does not start, the STOP button safety feature is working correctly.

—If the machine does start (with the stop button pushed in), immediately disconnect power to the machine. The STOP button safety feature is not working correctly. This safety feature must work properly before proceeding with regular operations. Call Tech Support for help.

9.FOR G0461 ONLY: Verify that the main blade is turning the correct direction by start- ing the motor, then stopping the motor while watching the main blade come to a stop.

—If the main blade turns clockwise (as stand- ing in front of the machine), it is turning in the correct direction.

—If the main blade turns counterclockwise (toward the rear of the machine), it is turning in the wrong direction. Stop the machine, disconnect it from power, then exchange any two of the three power wires in the terminal box. For additional help with this, contact our Technical Support Department at (570) 546-9663.
