The all-new ProShop mechanism (left) not only moves the motor inside of the cabinet but also uses a heavy-duty swing arm (right) to locate the arbor. This system drastically reduces vibration and makes blade height changes smooth and precise.
The new JET JPS-10 ProShop saw
represents new thinking that makes your shop time more
accurate and productive.
JPS-10: 10" PROSHOP 1-3/4HP 30"- CW
The JET ProShop 10" Table Saw (#708482K) is the result of combining key cabinet saw features with the semi open leg structure of the venerable contractor- style table saw. While developing a unique set of technologies to give the JET ProShop 10" Table Saw wide-ranging capabilities was the goal, accuracy, durability and ease of use remained at the top of the priority list throughout the design process.
This new design also allowed simplifying the assembly process considerably. With the motor installed within the cabinet at the factory, the process of hanging the motor on an external bracket and aligning it with the
arbor, common on contractor-style saws is eliminated completely. The extended cabinet of the JET ProShop 10" Table Saw also replaces the open leg assembly common contractor saws with four channel-shaped legs that are extremely rigid and very easy to install. Four bolts secure each leg to the cabinet and need only to have the leveling feet attached to get the JET ProShop 10" Table Saw upright and ready for final assembly.
At the heart of the JET ProShop 10" Table Saw is the all-new operating mechanism that locates the motor inside of the cabinet. This massive cast iron mechanism is extraordinarily rigid and substantially increases the vibration dampening mass
directly below the table. The result is super smooth, super quiet operation with an overall stability of the blade system previously found only in machines that are far more expensive.
A dual drive belt system transfers motor power to the
5/8”-diameter arbor that is located in a short, super rigid cast iron arm. Blade height adjustments are remarkably smooth in part because the blade arm is isolated from the weight of the motor and undercarriage. The 5/8”-diameter arbor was designed with sufficient length to handle most stacked 6” or 8”-diameter dado sets at a full 13/16” width.
The blade height and tilt mechanism provides maximum cut depths of 3 1/8” at 0- degrees and 2 1/8” at 45-degrees. The mechanism tilts the blade to the left, away from the fence so the operator is controlling the major piece and the scrap falls onto the table, away from the blade.
