For those of you who have assembled this saw -- the motor mount seems to have contradictory instructions (what a surprise).
The motor plate bracket #9A that says that it attaches to the "front of the face plate", which would be on the side of the base closest to the switch. It is shown this way in figure D and in the exploded diagram on page 20 of the instructions.
However, Figure E appears to show the top of the motor mount bracket attached to the motor plate bracket OPPOSITE the end that has the switch, as indicated by the cord placement in the picture.
Is the diagram correct or the picture in Figure E (or neither?)
