Powermatic PM3000T 14" Table Saw with ArmorGlide & Extension Table 7.5hp, 3PH, 230V (50" Rip)
Now featuring ArmorGlide Technology that is low-friction and rust-resistant, the PM3000B brings heavyweight performance and patented innovations to the 14-inch table saw arena. The riving knife rises and lowers with the blade, substantially reducing kickback risk; and both the riving knife and blade guard each have a quick-release, so mounting and removing them is fast and tool-free. A wide-stance trunnion and concave teeth on the trunnion gears promote smooth blade raising/tilting.
The Poly-V drive belt system results in quieter, more efficient power transfer with virtually no vibration and less heat buildup. A redesigned push button arbor lock is accessible from above the table top and eliminates the need for dual arbor wrenches. Additional features include a sloped cabinet floor, dust shroud around the blade, and built-in port for dust extraction.
ArmorGlide Technology pros:
-
Enhanced visibility:Â The dark surface reduces glare, so you can see where you're cutting better.
-
Rust resistant:Â Ditch the steel wool and never worry about rust again.
-
Low friction:Â Coated tables require 50% less force, so you get more control.
-
Maintenance-free:Â Get rid of the waxes and messy cleaning supplies, so you can do more of what you love.
-
Durable coating:Â ArmorGlide tables can withstand 250,000 passes without showing signs of wear.
