Hello,
I have a Jet contractor style table saw (JWTS-10CW2-LFR, 1.5 HP) that is about twenty years old. I am looking to sell this saw for a very reasonable price because of the wear/damage on the gear responsible for raising and lowering the blade. Replacement parts are not available. This gear does not fully contact the worm when first raising the blade above the table surface. The blade needs to be pulled up to engage the mechanism. Once engaged the lift gear works well. I have tried, with some success, to use both 8" and 10" blades to avoid the unstable section of the blade height range. The saw makes perfectly good through rip and crosscuts, but the current situation makes some non-through cuts (rabbet, dado, cove) very challenging. At the lower blade height range, the blade will move up when the motor is turned on.
I would appreciate any thoughts on selling. I would prefer to sell intact as opposed to parting out. Now that I have found a good deal on a used cabinet saw, I am ready to say goodbye to this saw. Thanks!
Steve
