Craftsman Radial Arm Saw model 113.29460: wiring

I'm still having problems.

5 brown (120V)
6 orange (120V)
7 (240V)
8 (240V)

Power cable coming into motor has the black wire connected to a black wire from the motor with a wire nut. The remaining white wire has a female spade lug that's not connected to anything.

The guide light has a white and black wire with female spade lugs. Neither is connected.

• Craftsman Radial Arm saw recall

The motor was a bit long for the new case and I had to hang one capacitor outside on its wires as there wasn't room inside.

Anyway, the wiring is bone simple. The wires come in, you hook the same ones up either 110 or 220. Just be careful not to break any of the little crackly things in there. I had to epoxy something back together, as I recall.

The new motor was a vast improvement for the poor saw, and it has done an enormous amount of work since the jury-rigged repair. 220's no real advantage if you have good current. I stuck with 110 after trying both.

Hope this helps.
