The product, in the report: Laguna Fusion F1 table saw, manufactured by Laguna Tools in Grand Prarie, Texas
I own a table saw manufactured by Laguna Tools of Grand Prarie, TX. All table saws manufactured since 2008 are required to have a safety device called a riving knife, which prevents the cut part of the board from pinching together as it is passed through the saw. If the “kerf” or cut portion of the board pinches together, it will cause the saw to bind, which can lead to the board being forcefully ejected back towards the operator at high speed. In some cases it may even result in the operator’s hand being drawn into the spinning saw blade.
The riving knife on my table saw, Laguna model Fusion F1, has become very loose, causing it to be misaligned with the blade. This sets up a very dangerous operating condition. When I contacted Laguna’s tech support, their answer was “do not use the saw as it is dangerous to operate in this condition.” I asked them what the fix was and was told “to remove the riving knife clamp mechanism, clean and lubricate it, and re-install it.” I asked how I might go about doing that and was told “we don’t have a published procedure because it is straight forward.” I pressed further on what the procedure was for doing what they suggested and got no answer, other than to suggest that “I am the first person to ever have a problem with this.” I hold a degree in mechanical engineering and am quite familiar with tools and machinery, and I can say that there is absolutely nothing self-explanatory or “straightforward” about performing this repair. They are setting up an extremely dangerous condition with a table saw that they manufacture, and are being extremely negligent about addressing my concern.
