Re: Electrical Problem with CF731 Pro
Greg, To me, in way of prioritizing the trouble shooting, I would work on the table saw motor cabling. To be precise, the part between selector switch and the disconnect where you isolated the

Re: Calibration of power drive angle
Thanks David, Like you and Lucky described, I do the cut test to confirm calibration. I calibrate with precision 90 & 45 squares. I am just curious what my wixey angle gauge does. If memory serves me

Re: Calibration of power drive angle
Imran, For the 90¡ã stop, I cross cut a 1x3 on edge with the blade fully up, flip the off-cut over, put the two pieces back together on the bench and check with a straight edge. Same method with a 1 x

Re: Electrical Problem with CF731 Pro
Hi Greg, When you plugged shaper motor into table saw position, was the outcome identical to what happens with original wiring and selecting table saw? That is, you have to power cycle to restart?

Re: Calibration of power drive angle
I guess i will need to check my angle gauge now. I did not use it to calibrate 90 & 45 stops on the saw though. Imran

Re: Electrical Problem with CF731 Pro
Hi Brian, I have checked all start and stop buttons, for continuity across the switch, whether N/O or N/C. No problems but I will now triple check since it is a possibility. I am going to entirely

Re: Calibration of power drive angle
Hi Mark: When calibrating my Kappa, I tried the tilt box method and was surprised how inaccurate it was for me. Maybe the fact that the tilt box is not accurate enough, or maybe the fact that a saw

Graduations on the Mitutoyo are 5 minutes, that¡¯s 1/12?, which is .00145¡± per inch, which by my math is roughly 3 times better than .0035¡±. Brian Lamb blamb11@... www.lambtoolworks.com

Calibration of power drive angle
I have the procedure, is a digital tilt box accurate enough or am I better of using a vernier scale protractor like the Mitutoyo 187-201. Looks like the tilt boxes are accurate within .2deg. Regards,

Re: Job site saw recommendation?
I have used the Dewalt for years. I love that saw. It¡¯s got a solid little fence that doesn¡¯t flex because it¡¯s locked down at both ends. I use it all the time.
