REPLACEMENT PARTS
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
POLARIZED PLUGS: To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
MOTOR
Many Delta tools will operate on either D.C., or single phase 25 to 60 cycle A.C. current and voltage within plus
or minus 5 percent of that shown on the specification plate of the tool. Several models, however, are designed
for A.C. current only. Refer to the specification plate on your tool for proper voltage and current rating.
CAUTION: Do not operate your tool on a current where the voltage is not within correct limits. Do not operate
tools rated A.C. on a D.C. current. To do so may seriously damage the tool.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FOREWORD
Delta Model 36-255 is a high capacity 12" compound miter saw designed to cut wood and non-ferrous metals.
It can crosscut 8" x 2¼" and 7" x 3¼", miter at 45 both left and right 5¼" x 2¼", bevel at 45 left 6¼" x 2¼" and
8" x 1¼", and compound 45 x 45, 5¼" x 2 1/2" and 4¼" x 2¼". It has positive miter stops at 0, 15, 22.5, 31.62,
and 45 degrees both left and right, and bevel stops at 0 and 45 degrees left.
POWER CONNECTIONS
A separate electrical circuit should be used for your tools. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and
should be protected with a 20 Amp time lag fuse. If an extension cord is used, use only 3-wire extension cords
which have 3-prong grounding type plugs and 3-hole receptacles which accept the tool’s plug. Before
connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the “OFF” position and be sure that the
electric current is of the same characteristics as indicated on the tool. All line connections should make good
contact. Running on low voltage will damage the motor.

GREATER THAN 50 FEET NOT RECOMMENDED
Use proper extension cords. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition. When
using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current of the saw.
An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage, resulting in loss of power and
overheating. Fig. 1, shows the correct gauge to
use depending on the cord length. If in doubt,
use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the
gauge number, the heavier the cord.
