Which table saw is the best?

The most suitable table saw for you depends on the type of project you’ll be working on, how much space you have in your workshop, and how much you can afford to spend. For example, if you do a lot of heavy-duty work, such as cutting large pieces of timber, you’re going to need a table saw with a powerful motor. Contractor table saws tend to have larger motors than benchtop saws and can handle a multitude of tasks. Alternatively, if your workshop is only small or you only need one for light-duty tasks, the last thing you want to do is opt for a table saw with a large footprint. Instead, go for a portable or benchtop model that can be easily moved around the room or used for mobile jobs, such as trimming branches and cutting lumber. If you’d like to know more about the different table saws we supply here at Kendal Tools, don’t hesitate to get in touch. We can even guide and advise you on the best table saw for your needs – taking into account your project requirements, space and budget.

Is it easy to adjust the blade height on a table saw?

Yes, once you know how, it’s easy to adjust the height of the blade on your table saw. To start, make sure that your table saw is switched off completely. It’s then a matter of spinning the wheel at the front in the direction you want the blade to go – usually anticlockwise to lower the blade to the table and clockwise to raise it. You may wish to use a combination square to make sure the blade is at the desired height for the task. However, as a general rule of thumb, the blade height should be no more than a tooth size above the cutting material to ensure a clean, safe cut. For more tips on using a benchtop saw safely, talk to our experts today.

How do I use a bench saw safely?

Much like any other large power tool, a bench saw can be dangerous if it’s not used correctly. That’s why you must always wear the appropriate safety gear (i.e. goggles and hearing protection). When using a bench saw, you need to make sure the blade is set at the appropriate height to protect your fingers if your hand slips. This should be no more than 6mm above the height of the piece you’re cutting. It is worth making a push stick to guide the wood through the blade, too. You also need to make sure that the tabletop is clear of any obstructions. And if you’re making long or deep cuts, support the workpiece to ensure it doesn’t fall off the back of the table or into the blade. To keep your bench saw in good working order and prevent build-up, it will need cleaning and lubricating regularly.

About Package Deal W619P : 8″ Table Saw with Wheel Kit and Low Noise Blade

Package Includes:

W619: 8″ Cast Iron Table Saw
W522: Wheel Kit
TB0840: 40 Tooth TCT Low Noise Blade

W619 Table saw is a compact, high quality table saw with a quiet induction motor. The main table is precision ground cast iron, and has 2 fabricated side extension tables to give impressive cutting capacities, perfect for the smaller workshop.

The quiet running induction motor turns the blade via a drive belt which means the blade is mounted onto a dedicated shaft. Expect greatly reduced noise and increased accuracy. Far superior to any gearbox type system found on most hobby level machines.

Blade height and blade angle are controlled using 2 separate hand wheels. The front handle adjusts the height of the blade, 1 clockwise rotation lowers the blade by 2mm. The side hand wheel adjusts the angle of the blade, anywhere from 90 degrees to 45 degrees with a locking level to ensure it does not creep. There is a large scale on the front of the cabinet to read the current angle off.

The rip fence slides smoothly along an aluminium rail. A single locking lever sets the fence at the desired width, anywhere up to the huge capacity of 730mm (28″). There is a sight line looking down onto a scale measured in millimeters. The scale has 2 sets of numbers depending on whether the guide fence is set in the high or low position. For general working the higher fence face is used, but for cutting very narrow strips the fence is rotated to the low position to give clearance right up to the side of the blade.

For quick crosscut jobs there is a sliding mitre fence supplied which runs in one of the T-slots, located on each side of the saw blade. The block is a one-piece metal diecast and has 2 perpendicular faces which can be rotated by 45 degrees each way. The front face has a slot allowing a home made sacrificial fence to be added.

For very accurate crosscutting, the highlight of the saw is the sliding table. It glides along a guide rail running on 4 bearings. When pulled into the forward position it can load a 600mm (24″) board onto the table. There is a vertical work clamp to hold the board whilst making the cut. The angle of the back fence can be adjusted through a range of 45 degrees, with a positive stop to bring it back to 90 degrees. A flip over length stop completes the setup for making repeat cuts.

The hose kit supplied collects dust from the overhead saw guard and from underneath the blade meeting at a single 100mm diameter hose connection point at the back of the machine.

Supplied with 18 tooth TCT saw blade, sliding table, sliding mitre fence, side extension tables, floor stand, 4 adjustable feet, push stick, 2.0m power cable and UK 3 pin plug.

It is highly recommended that a dust extractor is used at all times with this saw to prevent the harmful build up of dust and chips. We recommend our model W696 which also has an induction motor to keep the noise level low.

Please note: It is not possible to use a stacked dado set with this saw.

W522 Wheel Base: Add mobility to your workshop with the addition of a wheel base. Just press down on the two foot pedals to lower the wheels and roll the saw out of the way.

TB0840 Saw blade: High quality precision blade for professional users packed with the latest technology.
