Will this work on my old craftsman tablesaw? I believe I need a Magnetic switch. . .

I used this on my craftsman 100 table saw. I didn't rewire it I just plugged in my motor cord into this unit.

I haven't used my switch for a table saw but I too have an old Craftsman table saw. And have for years I've used a similar ON/OFF switch mounted just under the front of the table. So I think this should work as well.

It should. The motor plugs into the switch as a bypass just like it would to an extension cord. In other words, the switch itself has a short female plug and cord and a longer male plug and cord about 8' long.

The switch can be used for any electrical device that may need a quick and easy turn off. My use for this switch was also for an old Craftsman table saw. It is only a switch, but a switch with an easy to access OFF position that can be activated with anything available like a fist, knee or hip. The "safety" part is its readily available OFF position.

I use it on a 1.5 hp router table and love it. Easy access cutoff and protected on switch. I would use it on 110 vac standard table saw based on my experience.

This is a switch for turning a 110V machine on and off. If the saw motor is OK then the line coming from the motor can have a plug attached then plug into the Rockler switch to turn the saw on and off and bypass the saw on/off switch. I hope this helps.

Greetings Ed, I'm sure this mag switch will be able to work as long as you have the clearance space to mount them close enough together to activate the magnet. I have mine connected to a cabinet door that activates the light to go on. It's wired inline through a 12 volt transformer which then powers a LED light strip. Good Luck with your project.

That's a difficult question to answer not knowing what brand and model of tablesaw you intend to attach it to. Mine is on an older Rockwell Contractors saw. The guide rails bolt to the main casting (table) using the four existing bolt holes. The original right-hand extension wing was disgarded and replaced with a 36" long ply and hardwood extension table which must be built by the owner. This extension table rests between the new guide rails on four supplied steel supports. I've had no problems no problems at all. I should point out, though, that unless you have adequate experience or access to someone who does, you may want to check Vega's website to see if a copy of the instructions can be downloaded for you to examine and see if the systyem appears adaptable to your particular saw and if you are up to the task of installing it. Hope this helps.

I have used many of these switches on several of my tools, both 110v and 220v. I have had none of them fail in the manner you describe. I can only suggest that it is a defective unit, or you may have wired it wrong (but that is unlikely). Just to check your work, you did replace your drill press switch with this one, right? I mean, you are not trying to use both switches, right?

I am sorry but I cannot say wether it will work with an old Craftsman. But they do include 4 adapters to use with different makes and models. So maybe one of those adapters will work with your Craftsman. Give it a try, if it doesn't work. ship it back. Cheaper than buying a whole new power washer. Good Luck

I am not familar with th eDewalt DW745 table saw. I would say that as long as the slide is the same width as the slot in th Dewal table surface, it should work just fine. I am using it wth a Bosch router table and that combination works quite well.

Yes, it simply lies in the metal. So as long as your wood has the same dimensions it would be an easy switch.

I know this doesn't fully answer your question, but it did work with my Craftsman (model number unknown).

I bought this for my ridding mower which nis sears craftsman itr is less than a year old and it stopped working wasn't worth the money but mine was a briggs and Stratton starter I think I hope this may help you

No It will only work with the smaller table saws. For that application it works very well

I can not say that it is, or is not, a magnetic switch. I can tell you that it performs the same function for me. I use these on my woodshop tools. I have tested them by turning on a tool, then turning the circuit off to simulate a power outage. When the breaker is switched back on, the tools do not re-start. You must physically turn the tool back on. Great, and necessary safety feature.

I don't think so. I think if you're on a 15 amp circuit, this switch will do the job. I'm using it on a 10" Delta table saw.

Hi David, If The Channel in your table saw measures 3/4" wide by 3/8" tall it should fit. But I think your saw might have a different type channel. I had to remove the front guide wheel to fit my older iron top craftsman saw. Good luck, Kevin

Im not 100% on that. I installed on a Craftsman, the unit does seem to be somewhat universal and works well. Hope this helps.

Sorry, I don't know the answer on that. I installed it in a Craftsman drill press after carefully measuring the old switch.

Absolutely not. They claim it will - but it won't. The one that does work is the Craftsman 9-30499 but don't buy it directly from Sears unless you're desperate - go through eBay where you can get it for $10-20 cheaper.

I use it on my 1hp Craftsman tablesaw motor ...........no problem. I would check the spec on ampere rating. More important than the HP rating.
