This is a quality hybrid saw. The setup is straight forward and relatively simple although it does take two people because of the weight. Once setup, the saw required just a little adjustment for proper parallelism and accuracy of the blade and the fence.

Cuts are smooth and the saw has plenty of power for the home woodworker.

This review is from: JET 708480K JPS-30: 10-Inch ProShop Tablesaw 1-3/4-Horsepower 30-Inch Rip Fence with Steel Wings (Tools & Home Improvement)

The saw arrived undamaged from shipping. Set up took about 3 hours by myself and was simple enough. The steel wings are a little flimsy and difficult to align perfectly with the cast iron table. Started the saw up on a 110V 20amp dedicated circuit which is above the required level for the motor. The blade would spin about one inch and the motor would hum. Calling technical service was easy, but I got the runaround from three different people.

1st guy: Told me the saw needed 40 amps which is wrong since it says 15 amps in the manual and on the Jet website. My hopes weren't high at this point that anything else this guy told me was going to be accurate. He had me take off fan to look at the centrifugal switch. I did this and called back 5 minutes later...
2nd guy: I got the fan off and could not see the centrifugal switch. The technical support guy told me that there was a plate to remove to access this switch. There was no plate. He argued with me that there was a plate to remove. He got testy. Finally he put me on hold and came back 5 minutes later and said that I was right and that the newer models did not have the plate he so urgently wanted me to remove. He told me the problem was definitely the centrifugal switch even though I was not able to actually access it to check it. He gave me the phone number of a service guy 40 miles away and told me to remove the motor and drive, make an appointment with the service guy and get the motor serviced. I said this wasn't acceptable to me and that they needed to send out a service guy to fix my brand new defective saw which never worked. He told me that this could not be done so I tried getting another tech guy.
3rd guy: Told me the saw had a bad starter capacitor and that he would send me one in the mail.

Now I am waiting for this part to arrive. When it arrives I will finish the review. I think the saw will probably work well once it is going. Basically I have a problem with the attitude of several of the tech guys. They seemed impatient, testy, and didn't seem to know what they were talking about.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Saw but still needs work, February 27, 2008

woodworking is what gets my mind off large complex computer systems. I have gone thru 3 saws. I could not have a bigger more professional saw becasue of space limitation so I settled for this after careful reviews.

These ehancement will make it a great saw for its price.

1 - The Dust collection is poor.
2 - The dust and service door does not have hinge. 4 screws must beremoved to get access to inside of the saw
3 - Legs Have hole in them which will reduce the dust collection effectiveness.
4 - The rubber shoes should be self leveling.
5 - No riving knife. too bad because jet will not have solution for current customers. By next year they have to have one. I am considering MicroJig splitter
6- The power cord could be a bit longer
7 - the insert should have been standard like other jet saws. it is unusual thickness.
8- The miter gauge is too cheap. I am going to replace it with a kreg miter gauge.

Everything else on this saw is first class. All the essentials are among the best. The motor, fence, cast iron top, rails. Hope jet will address these short comings.I will recommend this saw
to anyone. Don't waste money on other saws. you will not find anything better out there.
