Electrical Requirements
•
Connect this saw to a 120V, 15-amp branch
circuit with a 15-amp fuse or circuit breaker.
Using the wrong size fuse can damage the motor.
•
Fuses may “blow” or circuit breakers may trip
frequently if motor is overloaded. Overloading
can occur if you feed the blade into the
workpiece too rapidly or start and stop too often
in a short time.
•
Most motor troubles may be traced to loose or
incorrect connections, overload or low voltage
(such as small size wire in the supply circuit or
overly long supply circuit wire). Always check the
connections, the load and the supply circuit
whenever motor does not work well.
