Product Description
This 10-inch table saw has a powerful 1-1/2 HP motor combined with rugged construction and a 30-inch Accu-Fence system and Rout-R-Lift making it the premier table saw for the contractor, craftsman, or home hobbyist. It features a 27-by-17-inch cast-iron table with a Rout-R-Lift hole and a front edge beveled to eliminate sharp edges that can damage the material. The T-slot miter gauge, complete with stops, gives you increased accuracy and flexibility in stock width capabilities while the solid cast-iron extension wings expand the work surface and provide ruggedness for increased accuracy and longevity. Plus, the blade tilts left away from the fence to prevent binding and reduce the risks of kickback. Sawblade capacity is 30 inches to the right and 12 inches to the left. Other features include a 4-inch diameter hookup for dust collection equipment, dado insert, a 3VX belt drive that is more efficient and has less vibration than other drives, and a quick-connect power cord that reduces assembly time. Shown with optional mobile base.

I am very happy with this saw so far. It is a great upgrade from the 10" benchtop saw that I have used for the past 10 years. I ordered it from a local supplier. When the saw arrived they loaded the main box into the back of my pick-up truck with a fork lift. I bought the saw with the 30" table, router-lift and mobile base. I loaded the rest of the boxes and drove home. After unloading everything except the main box, I unloaded it by opening the box and taking everything out part by part and my son and I unloaded the saw.
The instructions are good. One interesting tidbit is that there is a hint at the beginning of the instructions that says not to remove the protective wax coating until the saw is assembled. Then immediately after this list of hints, before step one in the instructions, it says to remove the protective coating from the saw table. I removed it first so that I wouldn't be sticking my fingers in it during assembly. WD-40 works great to remove the wax coating...Read more

This is a very nice saw. Wired to 220 it is noticably stronger than my old 13 amp saw running on 110. Smooth, though not as silky as some report. It is much quieter than my old saw. The fence is very nice and makes precise measurements when properly set up. The UHMW plastic fence face does not incorperate a channel to mount feather boards or other acessories but is replaceable. The leading edge of the table is beveled (which is good) but the cast iron extension wings are not... what's that? Having the router table built into the saw is a compromise, but works well for a hobbiest like me and saves space. The router raiser is super. A decent blade and zero tolerance throat plate produce beautiful cuts. It came with the wrong cursor for the fence/tape measure, but Jet was helpful and fast. In this market it is probably a little overpriced, but I've been very pleased.
