Quick update as promised the type C breaker fitted by electrition and no problem since even with my Camvack starting with 2 motors on and the table saw

I must be lucky I bought the Powerfix digital caliper about 2012 and have only changed the battery once which considering the temperature can be down to -10C in the workshop in the winter up here is good. I wish I could say the same for my digital angle meters they seem to run out of battery on...

Thanks for this Rob_Mc will keep a lookout for these at my local Lidl

Thank you Lambert that is very useful information to know will probably help Sunnybob too. If my new breaker does not work then at least I know I can get one of these.

Sorry, Dominik should not say that the saw was cutting out but what I meant was that the saw was causing the breaker in the consumer unit to trip. Following advice from MikeK, I called the electrician that installed the MCB and the cable to the shed and he is returning to fit a type C breaker...

That is the saw I have, it is a good saw but a pain when it trips out. Thought I had it sorted when I switched the dust collection on after the saw but still cuts out.

Thanks, MikeK just checked it is a B20 so will try a C breaker and see how I get on

Hi anyone knows where and how much to buy a soft-start for my Dewalt table saw as it occasionally trips the circuit breaker on my household fuse board.

I have the DWE7485 from the same supplier and like it. The setting up of the blade is not as bad as made out on the same review I suspect you watched on the tube as Inutopia said set it up to 90 lock it then adjust then get a philps screwdriver and lock the cam same with 45 deg and once the...

Hi guys thank you for your replies was out today and tried the blue tack trick but as Longsdale73 said a 216mm will not fit. It is the riving knife housing that seems to be the problem there is about 1.5mm clearance between the supplied 210mm blade and the housing so back to search for 210mm...

Thanks, Trevanion will try this later I suspect I might have to remove the riving knife to fit a 216mm. Could try a smaller blade I suppose. These saws have not been out long so not much forum activity and hints and tips on them yet.

Hi I have recently bought a Dewalt DWE7485 table saw and am having difficulty finding a 210x30 combo 48 tooth blade for this size has anyone tried using a 216mm blade on this or the flexvolt range and got away with it?

no problem Steve thank you in advance

Yes, please
