What to do if my Performax 240-3687 Saw motor does not start?
If the motor of your Performax Saw doesn't start, first ensure that the saw is properly plugged into a working power outlet. Then, check the time-delayed fuse or circuit breaker to see if it has tripped.
Why does the blade of my Performax 240-3687 Saw bind, jam, or burn wood?
The blade of your Performax Saw might be binding, jamming, or burning wood due to several reasons. It could be because of a dull, warped, or improper blade. In this case, replace or sharpen the blade. Also, the issue might arise from improper operation.
How to stop my Performax Saw from vibrating or shaking?
If your Performax Saw vibrates or shakes, there are several potential causes and solutions: * A damaged saw blade: Replace the blade. * A loose saw blade: Tighten the blade screw. * The saw not properly fastened down: Fasten the saw to a stand, bench, or table. * The workpiece not properly supported: Properly support or clamp the workpiece.
Why is the angle of cut inaccurate on my Performax 240-3687?
An inaccurate cutting angle on your Performax Saw can be due to a couple of reasons. The miter table might be unlocked, so use the miter table locking lever. Also, too much sawdust under the table can cause this issue; vacuum or blow out the dust, and remember to wear eye protection.
What to do if the brake on my Performax 240-3687 Saw does not stop the blade within 6 seconds?
If the brake on your Performax Saw fails to stop the blade within 6 seconds, it could be due to a few reasons. The electric hand brake might have failed, in which case you should have the saw repaired by a qualified service technician. Alternatively, the motor brake may have overheated due to the use of a defective or wrong-sized blade, or from rapid ON/OFF cycling, so use a recommended blade. Lastly, the blade screw could be loose, so retighten it.
What to do if the cutting arm cannot fully raise, or blade guard cannot fully close on my Performax 240-3687 Saw?
If the cutting arm of your Performax Saw cannot fully raise, or the blade guard cannot fully close, it could be due to several reasons. Sawdust build up can obstruct movement, so clean and lubricate moving parts. The saw-head locking pin might not be set properly, so check, adjust, and properly set the saw-head locking pin.
Why is the laser line projection hard to see on my Performax 240-3687?
If the laser line projection on your Performax Saw is hard to see, it could be because the light in the work area is too bright, so move the Miter Saw to a work area with proper light. Alternatively, there might be sawdust on the laser lens, so clean the laser lens using a soft, dry brush.
