Zero Clearance Insert for Hercules 10" Table Saw

Zero Clearance Insert for Harbor Freight Hercules 10" Table Saw

This is a zero clearance insert for the Harbor Freight Hercules 10 inch table saw. You will need to cut the blade slot for the table saw first until the riving knife begins to hit, then finish cutting the slot for the riving knife with either a circular saw or a flush cut hand saw. Mark lines on the insert that line up with the edges of the initial cut from the table saw blade to finish the slot for the riving knife (cut slot to within 8.5mm of the end of the insert for the riving knife, measure 8.5mm from the outside edge of the riving knife end, make a mark, stop your slot cut at the 8.5mm mark and the riving knife should clear just fine).

Parts Needed:

• 4 -M6 x 10mm hex set screw (The existing set screws on your original insert will fit)

• 1 -1/16" x ¾" x 1" flat metal (The existing piece on your original insert will fit)

• 1 - M4 x 10mm pan head screw (The existing screw on your original insert will fit)

Printed on Anycubic Kobra 2 Max, PLA filament, default Brim, 60% cubic infill.

On a side note:
I know that a lot of people that have the Hercules 10" table saw have trouble getting precise square cuts out of the saw…. I have a video that shows how to adjust the blade run-out on the Hercules 10" table saw on youtube. After making this adjustment I can get very precise square cuts with my Hercules 10" table saw.

First, watch this other very informative video below titled "Crucial Table Saw Alignments and Adjustments" by Workshop Companion  in order to understand how to properly adjust your table saw.
