Craftsman 10 miter saw table will nit rotate . Has anyone worked this issue?

YOU PROBLEPLY WORE OUT THE WORM GEAR.ALWAYS KEEP YOUR BLADES SHARP. I HAVE THE SAME SAW AND THE ONLY PROBLEM I HAD WAS I BROKE THE DUST BAG OFF, MY FAULT.

Go to eRepalcementParts.

I fond some model numbers for table saws and I would recommend going to managemyhome.com with your model number and you can download a manual for this tool with detailed instructions on how to align so it is cutting square. I used the model number 11329884 just to see and I was looking at page 55

you can try going to managemyhome.com with your model number for an owners manual for the adjustments that you need. Let me know if you still need assistance.

I don't have this saw, but my guess is the adjustment is underneath the table, holding the blade assembly. You'll have fun standing on your head trying to adjust it (loosen, tighten, try again) but that may be the only way. Good luck.

there is a black round pin towards the back top. Pull it out

I assume that your alignment procedure is about adjusting your miter gage. But you should first verify if the blade is parallel to the miter slot (the slot the miter gage slides in). This is adjustable underneath the saw, and sometimes comes crooked from the factory or comes loose later on. To check if the blade is parallel to the miter slot you can do this.....1. unplug the saw. 2. Raise the blade as far as it will go. 3. Clamp a piece of wood to your miter gage so that it just touches the blade as close to the front of the saw as possible. 4. Use a marker and mark that spot on the blade. 5. Now slide the miter toward the back of the saw, and rotate the blade by hand so that your piece of wood hits the same spot as where you checked in the front. You can see a large misalignment by eye. But you can get a little precise by using a piece of paper between the wood and the blade as a feeler gage. Or better yet, use a drop indicator instead of the piece of wood and you can measure the difference. If this isn't as close to parallel as you are able to measure it, you need to turn the saw over and find the bolts that attach the whole assembly under there to the table top. Once you have this in alignment, you should be able to set your miter to be square against any good square. If you don't have a high quality square, you can go to a tool store (Sears or whoever) with your miter gage in hand, and set it to be square against their most expensive square. If the square is square, and the blade is parallel to the slot and it still won't cut square you either have a bad blade or there is too much play in the saw's arbor. Try to wiggle the blade side-to-side - any wiggle at all is too much.

Try using a 1/16 thick flat washer as a shim where the mounting bolts/trunions mate with table. 1/16 shim on front mounting bolt will shift front of blade over 1/16 or 1 on the back mounting bolt will shift back of blade over

The sears online store is at www.managemyhome.com and you can get manuals and parts for some current models there. For older machines, try this website.
Most miter guages are relatively interchangeable, so it's possible a current Craftsman model will work in your miter slots. Just check the depth and whether or not there's a slot in the bottom sides for a key to lock it in place, then compare the depth to the new one you find. There are also aftermarket and specialty miter guages available from the standard woodworking tool catalogs and online. Replacement parts could be an issue.
I hope this information allows you to resolve this issue. If you need further assistance, please post back with a comment to this thread.
