Default Craftsman tablesaw (old)

I have old Craftsman 1 hp tablesaw that is just dogging out on me when
I'm ripping 3/4" plywood.

What can I do to get this old dog performing better? Does the blade
have that much of a factor or could there be other issues?

The model is 113.29992 it might be from the late 60's. the blade on
there now is a new Black and Decker Pirranah.

Thanks for any advice


A good blade will make a big difference. Check to make sure the fence is
parallel to the blade (it helps if it's parallel to the miter slot, but if
you're not using the gauge it doesn't make too much difference.)
