Look what I get to do...this weekend, maybe the next, and next... ??
Been experiencing issues with my SawStop, so after days and a millions hours of troubleshooting later, SS & I have narrowed the issue down to the brake cartridge ribbon cable.
No clue that that sort of thing existed for my saw, but from what they told me, I should have a lot of "fun" replacing it.
1 suggestion, from SS, was to; "remove the cast iron table top, because it'll make the job easier." That's like saying to me, "just remove the skull cap, it'll make the surgery that much easier."
Since I had them throwing parts at me (2 new brakes), so they wouldn't have to pay someone to come out and replace the cable, I figured I'd hit them up for a new hydraulic jack, too. Mine was leaking, and they agreed that I needed a replacement, so yay me!
Well, new parts finally arrived, but I'm a little confused. I thought I told them that my jack was leaking.
Why is the replacement already leaking? Am I supposed to do something to it, so that it doesn't leak??
Just curious...since I've never had to do any warranty service with SawStop before... Is this how they usually handle warranty work? The email/phone tech support was pretty good, but I'll tell ya. I've learned so much more about my saw over the last few weeks.
Grateful that the tech support was patient & very knowledgeable. Just hope I don't have to replace anymore parts.
