Excellent value!

As a furnituremaker I know what a tablesaw should do. This one is fine as a starter or a construction site tool. The blade has a 1/16" wobble, overall and the table needed flattening a bit. Apart from that I am delighted with my purchase and ma happy to have saved a few hundred pounds on a brand name machine which would likely perform just as well.Read full review

Good Product, Poor Instructions

The TS524EL is a surprisingly well made and solid product at this price.

I found the instructions to be poor, leaving a lot of uncertainty as I assembled the product. As an example, although there were different sized bolts, it did not specify which to use where. It also called them screws in some instructions and "bolts" in others, although they were all bolts. Another example is that although it tells you to remove the "red plate" around the blade, it never tells you to replace it, which is essential. After a couple of mis-directions, I got the saw assembled and working, and realised I had not set the Rivening plate correctly, again a clearer instruction with graphic would have helped

For an experienced handyman I am sure this is no trouble, but I gather this item is aimed at the hobbyist/beginner.

The saw itself is excellent. The extending plates to both sides and the rear are solid and fix very well. The fence guide is surprisingly firm (surprising because it is fixed only at one end), although whether this will be the case after some use remains to be seen. The scale on the front is also quite accurate, although I would not rely on it for critical cutting measurements. The angle fence is also very good. The cutting itself is clean and crisp - very smooth surfaces.

I have only two cons.
1) The saw did not line completely vertically at 0 degrees tilt, and I had to apply what seemed like unwarranted force to push it slightly past the 0 degree mark (into "negative" degrees) to get a vertical blade alignment.
2) I think Lumberjack should include a dust bag, even if only a simple one. I cannot envisage using the domestic vacuum cleaner for this task, and neither should I have to buy one for the purpose. I had to rig my leaf blower bag to achieve this, seems to do the trick.

Lumberjack TS254EL 10 inch table saw

The Lumberjack TS254EL bench table saw is a really well designed and sturdy piece of equipment at the price of £102.98 which I paid in September 2017.

I found it somewhat of a challenge to set up out of the box.

The instruction diagrams in the booklet provided need to be much larger to see when reading the instructions as to what parts fit into which sections.

It would help greatly if an on-line instructional video were made by Lumberjack to assist the user in assembly as certain other manufacturer's have now done.

The parts however all fitted together neatly and precisely.

On checking the blade alignment it was found to be spot on so no adjustments were needed.

When turning on the saw for the first time there is the initial jolt when the saw spins into action.

It runs smoothly and the fence is nice and easy to operate and lock into position.

I am extremely pleased with the operation of the Lumberjack TS254EL and my preference to buy this machine after having reviewed it's competitors on the market.

Well done to Lumberjack, it does what it say's on the tin as they say.
