Can anyone direct me toward info about this saw? Mostly curious about date of manufacture, how to maintain it/where to find parts. The saw was a gift from my boss when his neighbor was giving things away. Seems to work ok but want to replace the power cord as the current one is missing a ground prong.

 

Thanks in advance!

The online chat service at the Sears website told me this saw was made in 2014… Somehow I think that’s probably 30 years off!

315.xxx is the prefix code for Ryobi as the vendor of this saw to Sears. I would just get a heavy duty replacement plug at the big box store. I have used them many times with no problem. If yoyu are ambitious, replace the cord but make sure the original does not use some molded strain relief at the saw, that you cannot match, reuse, or work around.
