Craftsman Table Saw Fence Recall
Craftsman has recalled approximately 41,800 rip fences included on their benchtop table saws (model number 137.21830) citing as the hazard the chance that the fence can come loose, resulting in kickback and injury. Though Sears has received 230 reports of the rip fence bracket coming loose, no injuries have been reported. The saw models included in the recall were sold in Sears stores nationwide from August 2002 through November 2004.
Sears will provide free replacement parts with instruction to consumers. Contact the Sears Craftsman Helpline at 800-843-1682.

I recall (not fondly) the radial arm saw recall. They sent me this elaborate, expensive looking stuff that would make the saw alot safer. It actually did, Unfortunately, I couldn't change the blade with all the guards on. So, I am back where I was. I hope this one turns out better.
