Here is the deal on the motor.
It has two capacitors one is a start and the other is run.
It is 3 HP, no motor has a set of start winding that are more powerful that the run winding.
If is the other way around the run winding is less powerful and all it does is bump the motor out of phase so to speak to get it spinning then shuts off by way of a switch after the rpm's get to a certain speed.
I also bet the motor will run off 220 if wired the right way.
If you are serious about using the saw get the Incra miter and fence set up.
