OVERLOAD PROTECTION (Fig. U)
This saw has an overload relay button (3) that resets the
motor after it shuts off due to overloading or low voltage.
If the motor stops during operation, turn the ON / OFF
switch to the OFF position. Wait about five minutes for the
motor to cool. Push in on the reset button (3) and turn the
switch to the ON position.
WARNING
To avoid injury, the ON / OFF switch should be in the OFF
position and the plug removed from the power source
while the cool down takes place, to prevent accidental
starting when the reset button is pushed. Overheating
may be caused by misaligned parts or a dull blade.
Inspect your saw for proper setup before using it again.
