My saw stopped working - Hitachi C10RJ Table Saw Repair

[@bennunyour4121]

I had the same problem with my saw, and you saved me a lot of time and money thank you

[@ubrcami1]

I bought it for $40.00 just for the stand, to attach it to my Dwalt Saw, I was about to disconnect the cables from the box, to check it with the multitester, and it occurred to me to reset it, and to my surprise it turned on without problems. Thank you for this video, which inspired me to take the steps.

[@robertalva6898]

Bought all 3 parts started off with the soft start works like a charm now will sending the other parts back thanks

[@kendallpigg5097]

I ordered the part from Amazon, installed it, and used my saw today for the first time in a couple of months. This after the repair shop gave up and wanted to throw it away. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

This video really helped me. Mine did the same thing. Saved me $674 on a new Milwaukee ! thank you for your time !

[@tallrugger]

Thanks for taking the time to make this. I have the same issue and suspected the soft starter. Ordering parts.

[@marktwain8709]

Wow man thanks for showing us where the switch is in this thing. What a great informative video!!! No waste of time

[@charlesritter1862]

I have the same problem and just ordered the soft start part.

[@Proverbs2420]

Thanks ! I just ordered the parts, wish me luck 🍀

[@MsSuzza]

Mine just wouldn't start there was no binding issue. Although I had that in the past, started up. But not this time. Thanks for the heads up!

[@robertjwilliams3532]

It sure would have been nice to have had a light on the subject!!!

[@johnmichael5897]

This was to issue I was having with my table saw also. Thank you for making this Video!

[@jimadair4102]

Thanks for the info/video. My saw quick working and I replace the switch and working now!

[@austinconant8476]

I didn’t have a binding issue…….well I did the last time I used it. But I reset it every time. Finished the project then put it away. Took it to a job site a while later then it would’t work. Tore it all apart last night but wasn’t getting voltage anywhere. Turned out that somehow or another the plug at the end of the cord was damaged or failed internally. No continuity on the black wire from behind the switch to the plug. I’ll put a new plug on it tomorrow and that ought to do it.

[@rigomartinez5836]

Hello awesome vide. have the same issue was given to me taken apart did you happen to take photo or video of that soft start relay?

[@jaguerrero1]

Can you please share a photo of the switch wiring assembly? Thanks

[@sajidrafique375]

Wait till the Aluminium thread that the leadscrew goes through wears out !! You will have to buy a complete motor unless you are a good machinist who can insert a brass set from eBay... I just ordered for $29 because mine went bad and am not sure if I can do this job...

[@luistorres3737]

Could you share a picture or the schematics of how the switch is wired. We have one at work and the switch stoped working. We bought a replacement and one of workers decided to replace it without taking any pictures of how to put it back together. Now i don't know how those pins go on what plug.

[@michaelniesen2125]

I have the same saw, my motor would hum but not turn, it was the soft start . Thanks great vedio

[@johnnyquest4668]

Hi very informative video and much appreciated. Do you have some kind of link to the 3 components purchased. Thank you

[@lowerycustominteriors]

Hi Johnny, if you look through the comments I have responded several times with links. Some may no longer be in stock or back ordered but all the parts have been linked in the comments. I do not have them saved, sorry. Most people that had this issue it turned out to be the soft start.

Our's just would not start. Mine will hum when I push the start button. Tryed resect still just hums. Any idea?

Im debating this or a deWalt. I have the same miter saw you have

[@markbradley5444]

another good video! This is exactly the kind of issue I tend to run into, so now I know where to look first if it happens. ;-)

[@codybeverly9756]

Did your wiring have 2 black, 1 blue, and 1 white from the motor?

[@kennymacdowell1257]

Does anyone know which wires to jump on both switches to test which part went bad?

[@jackal58590]

Hi.I’ve picked up 10 inch table saw.To undo the blade.are the holding nut a left or regular right hand thread,it’s rusted so don’t want to damage it.cheers.

[@lowerycustominteriors]

To remove the blade, turn but counter-clock wise - Left turn to loosen.

[@garseetr]

I have the same problem. Will tear into it tomorrow. Thanks.

[@lowerycustominteriors]

It wasn’t a difficult repair, just keep wiring organized. I think there are 2 black wires one on each side of switch. Glad this was a help to you.

[@garseetr]

I do not see the soft start switch after taking the cover off. I have a 3/2016 Hitachi C10RJ jobsite table saw. It quit working after blowing out saw dust. I also inspected the reset and power switch. The power switch has 7 terminals. One of them does not have a connector attached and I did not see a loose one hanging around. I also inspected the brushes.

[@lowerycustominteriors]

@@garseetr the ‘soft start’ is located behind the switch in its only little compartment. There are four screws on the front to accessible switch. Then there are four screws on the back to access the backside of the switch and wires. Then there are 2 (I think) additional screws on the backside that you took off with the four screws. The soft start is located in that small compartment.

[@garseetr]

@@lowerycustominteriors I see in your video at about the 1:40 mark where the soft start is on your saw. What year model is your saw? My saw just.has the black solid cover with three screws. Currently waiting for a new reset switch to arrive. I bought my saw new on clearance at Lowe’s in 2019...3/2016 stock at 50% off sale. Will let you know the outcome. Thanks.

[@garseetr]

Resolved...The white wire on the cord was bad. Replaced the power cord. BTW my C10RJ tablesaw manufactured 3/2016 does not have a soft start switch. Thanks.

[@coldwindowsworkerseminolen4214]

Thanks for this video you saved me a lot of work

[@lowerycustominteriors]

Awesome... so glad it was helpful. If it is your switch, you will need to remove the ‘red’ off flap in order to remove switch once you disconnect wires, switch pushes towards front of assembly not out the rear. You should be able to use a punch and push the pin out that is holding flap in place.
