  Timothy HenryAug 16, 2025
  Your King Industrial Saw may overload frequently due to several reasons: 1. Using an extension cord that is too light or too long; replace it with an adequate size cord. 2. Feeding stock too fast; try feeding the stock more slowly. 3. A blade in poor condition (dull, warped, or gummed); clean or replace the blade. 4. Blade binding because of a misaligned rip fence; check and adjust the rip fence. 5. Blade binding because of warped wood; select another piece of wood. 6. Low house current; contact your electrical company.
