Why does my Woodstock SHOP FOX W1711 Saw machine stall or feel underpowered?
- C

  Your Woodstock Saw machine might stall or feel underpowered for several reasons. You may be applying too much pressure to the workpiece; try using a sharper blade and reducing the feed rate. Ensure the power supply voltage is adequate. If the belt is slipping, consider replacing it. Check the power plug and receptacle for proper contact and wiring. Also, verify that the motor connection is correctly wired. Other potential issues include a pulley or sprocket slipping on the shaft, an overheated motor (let it cool and clean the motor fan cover), faulty motor bearings (listen for noise), a faulty run capacitor, a failing contactor, a damaged motor, or a faulty centrifugal switch. Address each of these to restore full power.

What to do if the blade is not aligned with the miter slot or fence on my Woodstock SHOP FOX W1711?

  Erika RomanAug 25, 2025
  If the blade on your Woodstock Saw isn't aligned with the miter slot or fence, it could be due to a warped blade, which would require replacement. Alternatively, the blade may not be parallel to the table top; in this case, adjust the table top (miter slot) parallel to the blade. Lastly, the fence might not be parallel to the blade, and you'll need to adjust the fence.

Why does the fence hit the table top when sliding on my Woodstock SHOP FOX W1711?

  If the fence hits the table top when sliding on your Woodstock Saw, it's likely because the front or rear rail is bolted too low. To fix this, raise the front rail or raise the rear rail.

What to do if the blade does not reach 90° on my Woodstock SHOP FOX W1711?

  If the blade on your Woodstock Saw doesn't reach 90°, the 90° stop bolt may be out of adjustment, so adjust it. Another possibility is that the pointer bracket is hitting before the blade reaches 90°; if so, file down the right side of the pointer bracket until the blade can reach 90°. Also, check for sawdust buildup on the positive stop and clean it off.

What to do if the blade hits the insert at 45° on my Woodstock Saw?

  Michael BarnesSep 3, 2025
  If the blade hits the insert at 45° on your Woodstock Saw, it could be due to an inadequate hole in the insert; file or mill the hole in the insert to correct this. Another cause might be that the table is out of alignment; adjust the table top (miter slot) parallel to the blade. Finally, the blade position may be incorrect, so adjust the blade position.

What to do if the board binds or burns when feeding through the Woodstock tablesaw?

  If the board binds or burns when feeding through your Woodstock tablesaw, it could be due to a dull or warped blade, in which case you should replace the blade. Another possible cause is that the splitter is out of alignment, so align the splitter with the blade. Also, the fence might not be parallel to the blade, so make it parallel. Finally, the table top may not be parallel to the blade; adjust the table top (miter slot) parallel to the blade.

  If the blade won't go beneath the table surface on your Woodstock Saw, the table top may be too low. Raise the table by shimming with washers.
