SawStop Table Saw

Saw Stop open issue ticket: 34-184183 regarding bad cartridges

The following cannot be cut on the SawStop without the possibility of engaging the safety cartridge. NOTE: If the cartridge engages while you are using it, you are responsible for paying “replacement” fee (currently $100). The fee only covers a portion of the cost.

  • Charred Wood – from fire, laser, etc. (the carbon is conductive)
  • Laser-cut wood (see above)
  • Chemically treated lumber / pressure treated wood
  • Wet lumber
  • Green wood
  • Wet paint or wet glue
  • Foil-laminated or metal leafed wood (like some picture frames)
  • Metal (staples, nails, miter gauges)
  • Cardboard corner guards (usually contain recycled metal fragments)
  • Graphite Cloth
  • Anti-static Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene
  • Carbon fiber
  • Any metal in proximity to the blade (saw sleds, rulers, squares, miter gauges, tape measures, etc.)
  • Hot dogs

Make sure the blade comes to a complete stop (and the green light is solid) before touching the blade with your hand or tape measure, otherwise the safety cartridge will engage.
