If you own a Makita 2702 table saw, you’ve probably noticed that there are some parts that are missing from the machine. In this article, we’ll cover the OFF switch, contacts that are normally open, the brake, and power to the machine. You’ll also find a list of parts to replace the machine’s switch. Read on to learn how to find the correct replacement part for your saw.
OFF switch
To troubleshoot the OFF switch on a Makita 2702 table saw, you should first check the wiring for the saw. The brake wire is different from the neutral white wire and is connected to one of the connection sites on the NC side of the switch. The machine side wire from the plug connects to the NC side of the switch through the NO side. Once the brake wire is connected to the saw, power passes through it without causing smoke.
Once you’ve checked the wiring, you’re ready to switch the saw on or off. The switch can be easily accessed through the table’s window area. Pulling the lever too hard without the key will break the switch. Make sure you remove the power cord before connecting it to the table. Keeping the blade and workpiece steady is essential for a smooth, efficient cut. Make sure you don’t twist or bend the workpiece.
Contacts that are normally open
When you’re looking for parts for a Makita 2702 table saw, you’ll probably want to start by checking the contacts that are normally open. The contacts on one side of the switch are what you want to be open. When the switch is ON, the contacts are open. The other side of the switch has contacts that are normally closed. Connecting the two wires will cause the saw to run when the switch is turned on and will not brake.
Brake
The 15 Amp motor delivers 4,800 RPM and is equipped with an electric brake. The large cutting capacity will allow you to rip up to 4X material in one pass. The Makita 2702 has a 6″ x 13/16″ dado blade and features a dual-sliding two-pole slide system that raises and lowers the blade for efficient blade depth adjustment. The angle rule includes micro-fine adjustments and secure miter gauge grooves. You can rip up to 4×8 sheets of plywood with the right extension table.
The Makita 2702 table saw is equipped with a 15-amp motor and an electric brake. The brake can be used for safety purposes. It is not recommended for use on concrete. If you are unsure about the brake position, check the manual that came with your saw. If it isn’t working properly, you might have to change the blade. The blade is attached to the saw by a metal band.
Power to the machine
The power to the Makita 2702 table saw is a 15 AMP motor that provides ample power for any job. Its large 27″ x 22″ table has positive stops at 45deg and 90deg, and includes an arbor and rip fence. This saw also has a carbide-tipped blade and a rip fence. The no load speed of this saw is 4600 RPM.
