To Next PageTo Next PageWhy does the Jet Saw table tilt not hold position?
The table tilt on your Jet Saw might not hold its position because the lock handle isn't tight enough or the trunnion locking mechanism is broken or worn. To fix this, try tightening the lock handle first. If that doesn't work, you may need to replace the trunnion locking mechanism.
