dewalt radial arn saw manual required

[acewoodturner]

Just bought a radial arm saw from gumtree and its a cracker. Must be at least 25 year old but hardly used. It has the eight bearings in the head instead of the usual 4 these days. Got it in position in the workshop after press ganging another 3 bodies to help lift it out of the van. Having a bit difficulty identifying it as it has no model number on it. I have most of the manual for the 1420 to 1635 which it is wired up the same as. I need the wiring diagram for the single phase machine which is the page/s that are missing. Has anyone got the pdf or can point me in the direction of a website that has a download. I cant remember the site that used to have all the various machine manuals which is annoying.

Most of the DW RAS models are pretty similar especially when it comes to wiring.

Hi Mike - try this www.2helpu.com - not been on there for a while but used to have drawings and manuals for all B&D machines, including DeWalt. If that's no help try giving DeWalt a ring and ask for Power Tool Technical - they were always very helpful.

Cheers

hat site last night but they don't have heir older saw manuals on it. I will give them a phone. The reason that I wanted the wiring diagram was that it has the older style handle on it where you can use your thumb to start it, a bit like a dead man's handle. This will save from having to use the contactor on the leg to switch it on and off with. There is a stopper plug on top of the handle where the switch goes into and I wanted to check how to wire it up properly. The switches are still readily available from Dewalt agents at a cost of about 40 quid. My manual just has the single phase wiring pages missing. I suppose this is what you get when you don't put them in a ringbinder folder!
