Why does my Jet Saw stop or not start?
Your Jet Saw might not start due to several reasons. First, ensure the saw is properly plugged into the power outlet by checking all plug connections. Second, a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker could be the cause; replace the fuse or reset the breaker. Lastly, inspect the power cord for any damage, and replace it if necessary.
What to do if my Jet JWBS-14CS Saw makes unsatisfactory cuts?
If your Jet Saw is producing unsatisfactory cuts, there could be several reasons. The blade might be dull and needs replacing. Check if the blade is mounted correctly, ensuring the teeth face the operator and point downward. Gum or pitch accumulation on the blade can also cause issues, so remove the blade and clean it with oven cleaner or another solvent. Finally, ensure you are using the correct blade for the type of cut you are making. Also, try cleaning the table.
Why does the blade wander during a cut on my Jet JWBS-14CS Saw?
If the blade on your Jet Saw wanders during a cut, several factors could be responsible. The fence might not be aligned with the blade; check and adjust it. Warped wood can also cause the blade to wander, so select another piece of wood. An excessive feed rate could be the issue; try reducing it. Ensure you are using the correct blade for the cut. Also, check that the blade tension is set correctly according to the blade size, and adjust the guides as needed.
What to do if my Jet JWBS-14CS vibrates excessively?
Excessive vibration in your Jet Saw can stem from a few sources. Ensure the base is positioned on a flat, level surface. A bad v-belt can also cause vibration, so consider replacing it. Check if the motor mounting is loose and tighten the motor mount fasteners. Also, inspect and tighten any loose fasteners on the saw.
How to fix inaccurate cuts (45 or 90 degrees) on Jet JWBS-14CS?
If your Jet Saw isn't making accurate 45 or 90 degree cuts, the table stop might not be adjusted correctly; check the blade with a square and adjust the table stop. Another possibility is that the angle pointer isn't set accurately; check the blade with a square and adjust the pointer. Lastly, the miter gauge might be out of adjustment, so adjust the miter gauge accordingly.
Why doesn't the blade come up to speed on my Jet Saw?
If the blade on your Jet Saw does not reach full speed, the extension cord may be too light or too long; replace it with a cord of adequate size and length. Another potential cause is low shop voltage. In this case, contact your local electric company.
