K-line 950 transformer ???

Dose anyone know which terminal on the K-Line 950 is + and which is -?

I have one but no instructions and need to know before I hook up to the K-Line sawmill

Thanks in advance,

Kev.

Because it is a transformer, the terminals take turns being positive and negative, changing roles every 1/120 of a second.  It would make sense to designate a polarity only if the 950 were a DC supply.  If your sawmill needs DC you'll need to get a DC supply to power it.  Otherwise, if the sawmill is meant for AC, it won't matter how you connect it to the 950.
