I recently bought a new tablesaw and after waiting months for delivery, I'm
having problems.

I set it up following the instrucition. I aligned the blade perfectly. The
fence, a Bies close, is perfect to the miter slot.

For my first test, I ripped an old 2 x 4 and it gave a nice clean cut, no
burning. Then using the miter I made a series of cross cuts and the angle
was a true 90 degrees. After testing, I cleaned it up and put on a brand
new fine tooth blade, then put it to work for its intended purpose cross
cutting sausage in the butcher shop.

Every time I try to make a cut, I barely get throught he casing and the saw
stops and the blade falls out. I reset it, try the 2 x 4 and it seems OK.
They I grab a long kielbasa and WHAM, the blade stops. Any suggestions as
to what I'm doing wrong?
