9Grounded, cord-connected tools intended for use ona supply circuit having a nominal rating between150-250 V inclusive:This tool is intended for use on a three-phase circuit.Make sure the tool is connected to an outlet havingthe same configuration as the plug (not provided).No adapter is available or should be used with thistool. If the tool must be reconnected for use on adifferent type of electric circuit, the reconnectionshould be made by qualified service personnel; andafter reconnection, the tool should comply with alllocal codes and ordinances.If hardwired:Permanently connected tools: This tool should beconnected to a grounded metal permanent wiringsystem; or to a system having an equipment-grounding conductor.Improper connection of theequipment-grounding conductor can result in arisk of electric shock. Check with a qualifiedelectrician or service person if you are in doubtas to whether the outlet is properly grounded.The conductor with insulation having an outersurface that is green with or without yellow stripes isthe equipment-grounding conductor. If repair orreplacement of the electric cord or plug isnecessary, do not connect the equipment-groundingconductor to a live terminal.After wiring, make sure that the blade rotates in theproper direction. If it does not, reverse two of the 3-phase wires on the supply input.6.2 Extension cordsThe use of extension cords is discouraged; try toposition machines near the power source. If anextension cord is necessary, make sure it is in goodcondition. When using an extension cord, be sure touse one heavy enough to carry the current yourproduct will draw. An undersized cord will cause adrop in line voltage resulting in loss of power andoverheating.Table 2 shows correct size to use depending oncord length and nameplate ampere rating. If indoubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller thegauge number, the heavier the cord.AmpereRating Volts Total length ofcord in feetMoreThanNotMoreThan240 50 100 200 300AWG00 06 18 16 16 1406 10 18 16 14 1210 12 16 16 14 1212 16 14 12 NotRecommendedTable 2: Extension cord recommendations6.3 Conversion to 460VThe Abrasive Saw is prewired for 230 volt. Tochange incoming leads for 460 volt operation:1. Open main motor junction box cover, andchange leads based on wiring diagram insidecover. Reinstall cover.2. Reconnect wire on transformer from 230Vterminal to 460V terminal.3. If using an electrical plug, replace current plugwith a UL/CSA listed plug rated for 460 voltoperation.7.0 Adjustments7.1 Miter adjustmentRefer to Figure 7-1.The table has a rotational range of 90-degrees. Toadjust miter position, proceed as follows:1. Move lock lever (F, Figure 7-1) toward the frontto release.2. Push vise/table unit to desired angle, as shownon scale. (On the AB-14 pull the stop knob outto rotate vise unit. The knob will engage at +/-45 and 90 degrees.)3. Loosen handle (G) atop vise, and slide jaw asneeded to accommodate blade angle. Positionvise jaw as close as possible to blade.Retighten handle securely.4. When desired cutting angle is set, firmly movelock lever rearward to secure setting.Figure 7-1 (AB-12 shown)
