If the motor in the saw you are looking at doesn't run, I would offer the seller $100.00 and have it rebuilt at a shop or walk. I find that if it isn't cutting well, I should be cleaning the blade!
I was going to change the drive belts, but that is probably the most intimidating looking job I have contemplated. I had to replace the switch and the fence, but everything else is original. They look similar with the mounting bracket, but I did not go further. I abandoned the idea, but came across Grizzly H5387 and H5389 much later. I found the odd Reliance unit for $500.00 plus. Just after getting it I thought that I should juice it up to 3-5 hp, because that is what you had to do. My saw is similar, 1970's vintage, 1-1/2 hp. The unisaw style has a mounting frame that is "different" and hard to find. Looking for info and advice - Rockwell 34-450 10' table saw Order what maintenance parts you need and spend a Saturday going over it, take the table off, clean everything up, paste wax/dry graphite lube the worm gears, pivots,etc, Don't be afraid of digging into it, there are lots of us on here that would help
I've got the Delta T2 fence that I got for cheap, works great. You can get a good T-square style fence, Biesemeyer or equivalent. But as has been said, you have to see/hear it in person to know for sure. I would take a look at it, if it looks good I would definitely pay $350-400 for it, some new wiring, maybe belts, switch, btw the throat plate looks original, I've got a NOS Rockwell one in the package still. You can get a new magnetic switch for it or find a good brand name used one for around $100. Don't worry about the motor, I've ripped through 3" maple no problem (obviously with a good sharp rip blade) Its not "exaggerated" HP. I've got the exact same saw however it was equipped with a AB magnetic starter from when it was bought new. Looks like it just needs a good clean up, maybe a couple of bearings, check table for cracks and trunnion/brackets. Re: Looking for info and advice - Rockwell 34-450 10' table saw
