Default 220 V wiring question

Backwards. The four hole socket (not a four hole plug) has 220 and 110
available.

The cord to your saw is 220 only.

is to add another receptacle with the right configuration. You will
have 2 hots and a ground, no white.


If I understand your comment...the receptacle is a 220v only. There
is
no way to plug in a 120v line and it has a 40 amp breaker.

So you are saying wire the "common/grround" from the saw to the ground
on the receptacle... right?

Thanks!
