Official Sears table saw parts

Sears table saws are known for their precision cutting ability and reliability. Sears manufactures table saws that are used by professionals and homeowners alike. When your Sears table saw isn't cutting as it should, you can count on Sears PartsDirect to have the replacement parts you need to fix the problem.

How to adjust the blade alignment on your Sears table saw

  • Unplug the table saw’s power cord from the wall outlet.
  • Raise the blade to its highest cutting position and lift off the blade guard assembly.
  • Loosen the bevel lock, set the blade to 90-degrees (straight up), and then tighten the bevel lock handle. Mark the right side of one blade tooth using a felt-tip marker. Rotate the marked blade tooth so that it's 1/2 inch above the table at the front of the blade.
  • Place the base of a combination square in the right side miter gauge groove. Adjust the combination square to that the ruler tip touches the marked blade tooth and lock the ruler.
  • Rotate the blade to bring the marked tooth to 1/2 inch above the table at the rear of the blade. Slide the combination square to the rear of the blade and determine the direction and degree of misalignment.
  • Adjust the blade. If the blade is partial to the right side, turn the left adjustment screw counterclockwise and the right adjustment screw clockwise to align the blade. Turn the right adjustment screw counterclockwise and the left adjustment screw clockwise to align the blade if it's partial to the left side.

What to do when the overload trips on your Sears table saw

Worn motor brushes, a bad drive motor, a faulty motor overload switch, using an improper extension cord and binding up the saw blade can cause the motor overload to trip.

A long or lightweight extension cord can cause a voltage drop that overheats the motor and causes the overload to trip. Use a shorter cord or a heavy-duty extension cord that can handle the current draw of the table saw. For a 120-volt table saw plugged into an outlet protected by a 15-amp circuit breaker, extension cord length typically shouldn't exceed 25 feet.

The motor can overheat if the saw blade binds up when cutting a work piece. Replace a dull or damaged cutting blade so it doesn't bind up when cutting a work piece. Using the wrong type of blade for cutting the work piece can also bind up the blade when cutting. Use the right type of blade for the work piece that you're cutting.

Worn motor brushes or a bad drive motor can cause the overload to trip. Check the condition of the carbon motor brushes. Replace the motor brushes if they're worn. Replace the motor if it overheats or won't spin the blade when cutting light work pieces.

A faulty motor overload switch will trip even when the motor doesn't overheat. Replace the motor overload if it constantly shuts off the motor when the motor isn't overheating.
