| Apr 29, 2023 at 23:46 | comment | added | Aloysius Defenestrate | Have you tried another good blade? Personal anecdote: for way-too-long, my jobsite tablesaw (Bosch 4000) would randomly flutter and widen the kerf. I changed all the bearings; I tightened everything. Never crossed my mind that my really high end blade could be at fault. Change blade, problem gone. Lesson learned. | |

| Apr 26, 2023 at 9:53 | comment | added | Timothy Roes | Something's definitely still loose inside the motor but I can't access it from the slot. Would it be a good idea to remove the motor using the bolts shown on this picture? i.postimg.cc/1tHKtcTd/IMG-0817.jpg | |
| Apr 26, 2023 at 9:50 | comment | added | Graphus | OK, good to rule that out. | |
| Apr 26, 2023 at 8:08 | comment | added | Timothy Roes | Thanks! I have checked the (riving knife) bolt but that's not the culprit. I have checked everything inside the table I can check without disassembling everything | |
| Apr 25, 2023 at 20:01 | comment | added | Graphus | Welcome to StackExchange and congrats on a well-asked Question. My read on this could well be wrong so one of the TS guys will hopefully be along soon to weigh in on this. But FWIW the first thing I'd do is secure any and all lose fasteners. As the saw started up with the Freud blade fitted my eye was immediately drawn to the bolt at left dancing around in the slot. When the original spins up to speed that bolt moves differently. | |
