Owner’s manual
How much is a craftsman professional table saw 113221720?
A Craftsman 113221720 table saw typically sells for about $150 to $400 on the used market, depending on condition, included accessories (rip fence, miter gauge, blade guard), and whether it runs smoothly and cuts accurately. For model-specific setup and included parts, use the 113221720 owner's manual.
What affects the price most
- Condition and accuracy: smooth blade height/tilt adjustment, no excessive vibration, and square cuts.
- Completeness: rip fence, miter gauge, guard assembly, handwheels, and extension tables raise value.
- Motor health: starts reliably, reaches speed quickly, and does not trip breakers under normal cutting.
- Rust and wear: surface rust is common; heavy pitting, bent trunnions, or damaged arbor lowers value.
- Upgrades: a quality fence upgrade or mobile base can increase value, but only if installed cleanly.
Quick pricing guide (typical used ranges)
| Condition | What we usually see included | Typical price range |
|---|---|---|
| Needs work | Missing guard/fence, electrical issues, rough adjustments | $50 to $150 |
| Working, basic | Runs and cuts, average wear, some accessories | $150 to $300 |
| Clean and complete | Fence, miter gauge, guard, extensions, tuned for square cuts | $250 to $400 |
How to estimate your saw’s value in 10 minutes
- Confirm the model plate matches 113221720.
- Verify the rip fence locks firmly and stays parallel to the blade.
- Raise/lower and tilt the blade through full travel; it should not bind.
- Make a test cut and check for burning, wandering, or out-of-square cuts.
- Listen for motor strain; slow spin-up often points to electrical supply issues or motor wear.
Why it matters
Table saw pricing is driven less by age and more by safety and cut quality. A complete, properly aligned saw with a functioning guard and fence is worth more because it is ready to use with fewer repairs.

What size blade is a craftsman 113221720 table saw?
The Craftsman 113221720 table saw uses a 10-inch table saw blade. This model is identified in the parts list section of the 113221720 owner's manual as a “10 inch table saw,” which matches the standard blade diameter for this saw.
Quick specs that matter for blade fit
A blade that is the correct diameter and arbor size installs safely, reaches full cutting height, and keeps the blade guard and splitter alignment correct.
- Blade diameter: 10 inches
- Use a blade rated for: at least the saw’s maximum RPM (check the blade label)
- Match the arbor hole: to your saw’s arbor (common 10-inch blades are 5/8-inch arbor, but confirm on your saw)
- Kerf (blade thickness): keep it consistent with your guard/splitter setup
- Blade type: rip, crosscut, or combination depending on the cut
How to confirm the exact blade and arbor size on your saw
We recommend verifying these items before you buy a replacement blade:
- Unplug the saw.
- Remove the blade guard.
- Read the blade markings (diameter, arbor hole, max RPM).
- Measure the arbor shaft diameter if the blade markings are unclear.
Common 10-inch blade fit checklist
| Item to match | What to look for | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Diameter | 10 in. | Correct cutting capacity and guard clearance |
| Arbor hole | Typically 5/8 in. (confirm) | Prevents wobble and unsafe mounting |
| Max RPM | Blade rating meets or exceeds saw RPM | Prevents blade failure |
If you are replacing the blade
Use a safe, step-by-step process so the blade seats flat and runs true. Our guide, how to replace a table saw blade, walks through the typical removal and installation steps.
Why it matters
Using the correct 10-inch blade size on the Craftsman 113221720 helps prevent vibration, burning, slow cutting, and inaccurate cuts. It also helps the guard assembly work as designed.

What not to do with a table saw?
For the Craftsman 113221720 table saw, do not use the saw until it’s assembled and aligned, and never operate it in ways that increase kickback or pull you into the blade. Avoid loose clothing or gloves, freehand cuts, and any setup work while the blade is spinning; follow the 113221720 owner's manual.
Top “don’ts” that prevent injuries and kickback
- Do not plug the saw in until assembly and alignment are complete.
- Do not wear gloves, loose clothing, jewelry, or leave long hair untied.
- Do not do layout, assembly, or setup on the table while the blade is spinning.
- Do not use the saw without the proper table insert installed and flush with the tabletop.
- Do not use dull, dirty, cracked, or unbalanced blades.
- Do not use blades that are the wrong size or rating for the saw.
- Do not operate near flammable liquids, vapors, or gases.
Blade and setup rules (quick reference)
| Item | What not to do | What to do instead |
|---|---|---|
| Blade size | Do not use a blade larger than 10 inches for thru-sawing | Use a 10-inch blade for thru-sawing |
| Blade rating | Do not use an under-rated blade | Use blades rated 5000 RPM or higher |
| Arbor fit | Do not use blades that do not match the arbor | Use blades designed for a 5/8-inch arbor |
| Arbor nut | Do not overtighten the arbor nut | Snug it securely with arbor wrenches |
Why it matters
Most table saw accidents come from preventable situations: accidental starting, contact with the spinning blade, and kickback. Following the guard, spreader (riving knife), and anti-kickback device guidance in the manual helps keep the workpiece controlled and your hands out of the danger zone.

Are craftsman table saws any good?
Yes. Craftsman table saws like the Craftsman 113221720 are solid, practical saws for DIY and hobby use; they deliver good cutting power for the money, and the older 10-inch designs are known for durability. For best results, accuracy depends on setup, blade condition, and keeping the fence and guard aligned (see the 113221720 owner's manual).
What “good” means for a table saw
A table saw is only as good as its alignment and how consistently it holds settings. Most owners judge a saw on:
- Cut accuracy (rip fence stays parallel to the blade)
- Smooth blade height and bevel adjustments
- Motor strength under load (no bogging on thicker stock)
- Safety system condition (guard, pawls, anti-kickback behavior)
- Vibration and noise (often tied to blade condition and mounting)
Strengths you can expect from the 113221720 style saw
This model is a 10-inch direct drive table saw; these typically perform well for common home projects.
| Area | What you typically get | What improves it most |
|---|---|---|
| Power | Good for plywood and dimensional lumber | Sharp, correct blade for the material |
| Durability | Sturdy, long-lasting core components | Cleaning and periodic checks |
| Accuracy | Good once tuned | Fence alignment and blade adjustment |
Common complaints and what usually fixes them
Many “mixed reviews” come from setup issues, wear, or using the wrong blade.
- Bad angle cuts or out-of-square cuts: tune blade-to-miter slot and fence alignment; use a quality blade (see table saw bad angle cuts).
- Rough cuts or burning: clean pitch from the blade, slow the feed rate, and verify the blade is not dull (see table saw bad cuts).
- Blade slows down in thicker stock: reduce feed speed and confirm the circuit can support the saw load (see table saw blade spins too slow).
- Hard to adjust blade height: clean sawdust buildup and lubricate adjustment points as the manual recommends (see table saw can't adjust the blade height).
Why it matters (accuracy and safety)
A well-tuned saw cuts cleaner and reduces binding. The manual’s safety guidance is clear: avoid unstable workpieces, use proper supports for large stock, and stop if the saw vibrates or makes unfamiliar noise. Those habits prevent kickback and protect the motor.
