  • Table saw set up for first use is a really important job that should be done to ensure smooth running of the table saw, there are many moving parts that need to be checked and adjusted to make sure it all runs as it should

    Having the blade that close to the wood can actually increase the risk of kickback. It should be above the wood so that the teeth make a downwards contact point with the wood first, with the way demonstrated a lot of the force is applied directly back at you. I used to think it was smart to put it just above until I learned in trade school why to not do it.

    I am not saying this is wrong advice but what I am saying is that if every single time we buy any piece of machinery - expensive or not - we find ourselves wasting precious and expensive hours to check what should be spot on from factory settings then this is all wrong - it turns out many of us have found a lot wrong / offset / off calibration / misaligned but and here is the strange thing: we seem to take the hit and put right what others got wrong for our money... imagine buying a new car to find out the wheels are not balanced, the lights are off track, the steering veers to one side, the washer jets point to the sky and the lot...nobody would a accept it but somehow we seem to accept that in what concerns woodworking tools being the main culprit...hand planes not to mention the lathe world...

    best tip I could also add to everything said in the video. PLEASE LOSE THE PLASTIC PUSH STICK, make or buy a wooden one, they are not good enough, they can slip, if they hit the blade they can also shatter, Always get a wooden stick. And where were your safety glasses, a black eye is far better than no eye.

      I bought this hikoki table saw, and it is a great site saw. It is not as gutsy as the dewalt. It will stall partway along a cut which can be very frustrating. I like it, I'm keeping it, but I really wish I hadn't sold the dewalt
