INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
These instructions have been prepared to assure you of
satisfactory operation through proper use of your
Jarvis
Wellsaw.
Read them carefully and keep them for future refer-
ence.
POWER SUPPLY
Your
Jarvis
Wellsaw operates on 50 or 60 Hz., single
phase alternating current. Its voltage rating is indicated
on the name plate (either 115 or 230 Volt). If an exten-
sion cord is to be used, be sure that the wire size is ade-
quate to maintain full line voltage to the tool.
GROUNDING
Your
Jarvis
Wellsaw should be grounded to prevent the
user from electric shock or
electrocution
. The
Jarvis
Wellsaw is equipped with an approved three conductor
cord and three prong grounding--type plug to fit the prop-
er grounding--type receptacle. The green conductor in
the cord is the grounding wire. Never connect the green
wire to a live terminal. If your
Jarvis
Wellsaw is the 115
volt model, it has a plug that looks like figure ”A”. If
your
Jarvis
Wellsaw is the 230 volt model, it has a plug
that looks like figure ”B”.

EXTENSION CORDS
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
Jarvis
Wellsaw will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line volt-
age resulting in loss of power and overheating. The table
below shows the correct size to use depending on cord
length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the
heavier the cord.

When tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords

OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
Before starting regular operation of the
Jarvis
Wellsaw,
we recommend that you make a few cuts with a fine pitch
blade to acquaint yourself with the operation of the tool
before using any of the coarser blades.
A. AVERAGE CUTTING AND RIPPING:
1. Place your work piece on a solid support at a
convenient working height.
2. Adjust the material so that the line of cut will be
close to the support. Secure it firmly.
3. To prevent starting torque of the motor from
pulling the saw away from line of cut, the opera-
tor should make a few short strokes until the
blade has cut into the material about 1/4 inch be-
fore squeezing trigger switch.
