junction box (A, Figure 21), tilt blade to 45 degrees, and remove right side cover.

Figure 21

The plug on the end of the motor cord must be replaced with a UL/CSA listed plug rated for 240V.

9.3Overload reset button

If saw becomes overloaded and the motor shuts off, push the re-set button on motor junction box (B, Figure 21) to restart. If overloading happens frequently, consult the Troubleshooting section in this manual.

9.4Extension cords

USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

Extension Cord Recommendations

Table 1

9.5On-off switch padlock

The Table Saw is equipped with a push-button switch that will accept a safety padlock, as

shown in Figure 22. To safeguard your machine from unauthorized operation and accidental starting by young children, the use of a padlock (not included) is highly recommended. Place the key in a location that is inaccessible to children and others not qualified to use the tool.

Figure 22

10.0Adjustments

Disconnect saw from power source before making adjustments.

10.1Blade raising/tilt mechanism

Never try to force the tilting mechanism past the 45º or 90º stops. This may cause the blade to go out of alignment.

Referring to Figure 23:

To raise or lower blade, loosen lock knob (A) and turn handwheel (B) on front of saw until desired height is reached. Tighten lock knob. The blade should be adjusted about 1/8" above the top surface of the material being cut.

To tilt blade, turn lock handle (C) counter- clockwise to loosen, turn handwheel (D) until desired angle is obtained, then tighten lock handle (C) clockwise.

Figure 23

10.2Adjusting 45º and 90º positive stops

1.Disconnect saw from power source.

2.Raise blade to maximum height.
