Independent side leaves
allow the blade guard to
follow the stock being
cut closely and leave one
side flat on the table
when making narrow
cuts. This increases
safety and enhances dust
collection by keeping more of the blade area enclosed. Both side leaves can be rotated up out of
The high-tech blade guard system features individual side plates (left) that can be rotated
up out of the way individually or together. The entire guard system is modular (right) and
can be removed or reconfigured in seconds for changing blades or other operations.
the way independently to make measuring cut widths easy and more accurate. The entire side
leaf assembly can be removed from the splitter by depressing a button at the hinge point to
increase access for blade changes without having to remove the
splitter assembly.
The splitter plate is mounted
directly to the arbor housing so that
the gap between it and the blade
remains constant through height
and bevel settings.
When necessary for procedures like cutting dados, the splitter
assembly can be removed by simply flipping its locking lever
within the throat opening and lifting it out.
Because the splitter is mounted directly to the blade mechanism,
the gap between it and the blade never changes during height or
angle adjustments. This maintains the safety a splitter affords in
virtually all cutting situations.
Accu-Fence
A key feature of any table saw is the fence system. To maximize accuracy
and safety, the POWERMATIC PM3000 comes with the POWERMATIC
exclusive Accu-Fence. Based on the venerable T-square design, the
POWERMATIC Accu-Fence takes this concept to new levels.
The Accu-Fence on the PM3000 has a maximum rip capacity of 50” to the
right of the blade. It also affords 14” of rip capacity to the left of the blade.
Even high-end fence systems are based on a
length of square or rectangular steel with
laminate-covered wooden faces. Manufacturing tolerances in the
tubing itself require shimming to straighten the face material
mated to it. POWERMATIC takes the extra step of milling the
square tubing to be sure that it and the face it supports are straight
without having to be shimmed.
The included 50”
Accu-Fence system is
tough, accurate and
easy to use.
We use tough, high-lubricity slabs of
HDPE to make the Accu-Fence
faces. These faces are easy to adjust
up and down when necessary.
