MOVEABLE CASTER & MACHINE
LEVELING
The machine is supplied with (2) casters with
leveling adjustors and (2) adjustable feet. To
level the machine adjust the leveling adjustors
on the castors using a open wrench and adjust
the leveling feet.
RESET PROTECTOR
Your saw comes equipped with a
manual-reset thermal-overload protector. It is
designed to open the power line circuit when
the motor temperature exceeds a safe level or
when motor is overloaded, or when a low
voltage condition exists.
NOTE: This motor should be blown out or
vacuumed frequently to prevent sawdust
buildup which can interfere with normal motor
ventilation.
Once the motor has cooled to a safe operating
temperature, reset the thermal overload
protector by pushing the
red button on the front
of the junction box. An audible click will indicate
the thermal overload protector is reset. Once the
switch button is reset, the saw may be started
and operated as normal.
NOTE :
If the reset button won't click into place
immediately, the
motor is still too hot
and must be allowed to cool.
Frequent
“blowing”
of fuses or Tripping of
circuit breakers may result if:

Motor is overloaded. Overloading can
occur if a work piece is fed too rapidly or if
the saw is
misaligned.

Motor circuit is fused differently from
recommendations. Always follow
instructions for the proper fuse/breaker.
Do not use a fuse/breaker of greater
capacity without consulting a qualified
electrician.

Low voltage. Although the motor is
designed for operation on the voltage and
frequency specified on the motor, normal
loads will be handled safely on voltage no
more than ten percent above or below that
figure. Heavy loads, however, require that
voltage at the motor terminals are equal to
the voltage specified on the motor.
NOTE :
Always check the connections, the load
and the supply circuit, whenever the
motor fails to perform satisfactorily.
