I just recieved my new Jessem cross cut table. I have done the initial installation and have found I have a serious problem. I'm looking for some opinions before I start making modification which will be permanent.
I have a General 650, left tilt, cabinet table saw. It has a HTC fold down outfeed table. The out feed table restricts the tarvel of the Jessem cross cut tabel. This seems to be a problem only when the out feeed table is in the down position (not in use). I don't think one would need to use the cross cut table when the outfeed table is engaged. Other opinions on this assumption would be helpful.
To use the cross cut table when the outfeed table is folded down would require me to modify the out feed table such that the frame structure on the far left side (viewed from the operating the table saw) would have to be cut by about an inch and remove one small roller. It doesn't appear that this would cause any structural damage or weaknees to the out feed table. While this would give the Jessem the needed clearance, this becomes a permanent alteration, and is making me nervous.
It is however, very clear that I would not beable to use both the Jessem and the outfeed table at the same time. Which I repeat doesn't seem to be a problem. Has anyone expiereced this issue? If so, what was your solution.
