I have a 1.5 up Contractor’s saw that came from the factory wired for 110V. It is my dedicated shop saw and I want to convert it to 220V. The owners manual says it is a dual voltage motor. “To operate at 230V single phase it is necessary to reconnect the motor leads in the motor junction box.” I have done a lot of 110 wiring, but have no experience with 220. Can anyone outline how this is done? Thanks
