Default Table saw wired for 220 but using a standard 3 prong plug

Just bought a Ridgid TS that the guy said is wired 220 but has a
standard plug on it to use in a regular 110 outlet. He said it works
fine this way and he used it all the time like this. Any thoughts? I
have not turned it on yet.


Did he say it *could* be wired for 220? *most contractor saws can be wired
either way by switching a couple of connections in the motor housing
(usually detailed on or in the housing), but it involves changing the plug..

Nope- he said it IS wired for 220.
