This review is from: JET 708663CK 10-Inch XACTA Saw Left Tilt with 50-Inch XACTA FENCE, Cabinet (Tools & Home Improvement)

The saw is all that it has been touted as being and then-some. The finish was good and all parts were there as one would expect. The power is incredible compared to my old 120v saw.

A specification sheet was included showing what all of the tollerances were as they were checked/set at the factory. In most cases the runout or tollerance was measured in the .oooo range, you can't get much closer to zero than that.

I found two items that kept me from giving this product a full 5-star rating it should be a 4.5 but that option isn't available.

1) The fence has a bent part for the adjustment that keeps the fence parallel to the blade. I will be contacting Jet to see what can be done to correct it. I think it will just be a matter of a little hammer work to correct it.

2) The assembly instructions leave a lot to be desired. If you do not have some mechanical ability and are not used to putting things together by reading between the lines you may have a problem. This will be especially true when attaching the cabinet to the saw and mobile base. JET doesn't make it clear that the two rear legs should be removed, you have to look at the picture to find this out.

For additional support, I drilled another hole directly over the mobile base support, cut one of the legs to fit and installed it. Other than this extra supportand the two front legs, there are 6 screws that hold the box to the table and I would imagine that in time the extra weight would cause the table to warp.

I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again but the way this is constructed I don't believe that will ever happen.
