Designed for repeated crosscutting, the Crosscut Power Saw delivers reliable performance even in the most demanding environments.
Key Features of the 14″ Manual Crosscut Power Saw
Safety First
The Lexan Polycarbonate enclosed cutting area provides maximum operator safety by creating a fully enclosed cutting space. This innovative design prevents access to the blade while allowing for clear visibility during operation. An integrated E-stop and start/stop station add further layers of safety.
Efficient Operation
The manual pull-handle system provides effortless control. The operator pulls the handle, and the carriage moves forward along a heavy fabricated steel beam. Once released, the carriage returns automatically to its home position, ready for the next cut.
Power and Precision
The 14″ Manual Crosscut Power Saw features a powerful single phase, 3 HP TEFC (totally enclosed fan-cooled) motor. Equipped with a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), this saw has smoother start-ups, precise blade control, and enhanced motor longevity. The VFD gradually increases blade speed over 8 seconds, reducing start-up amps and eliminating the need for a mechanical brake. This advanced system extends the motor’s life and provides consistent cutting performance, making it one of the best saws for cut quality and reliability.
Versatile Clamping Options for Enhanced Cutting Control
The 14″ Manual Crosscut Power Saw comes standard with manual clamping to securely hold materials in place during cutting operations. Pneumatic clamping is an optional addition for added productivity and efficiency. This customized clamping solution allows for faster, hands-free material securing, making it ideal for high-production environments or when working with larger or irregularly shaped materials. Whether you stick with manual clamping or upgrade to pneumatic, the Crosscut Power Saw offers flexibility to suit your cutting needs.
Built-In Dust Management
The integrated dust collection system keeps the workspace clean and safe. Sawdust is pulled into the machine during operation and expelled through a dust port at the back of the frame for easy disposal.
Durable Construction
The Crosscut Power Saw weighs over 800 pounds and features a heavy-duty, powder-coated steel frame built for long-lasting durability. This industrial-grade construction provides unmatched stability and reliability, making it ideal for even the most demanding environments.

Recommended Accessories for the 14″ Manual Crosscut Power Saw
Saw Flat Extension Tables
Enhance stability and safety by adding Saw Flat Extension Tables to the infeed and outfeed sides of your Crosscut Power Saw. Since the saw features an enclosed cutting surface with no exposed table, these extension tables provide the necessary support for handling materials efficiently. Saw Extension Tables are highly recommended when operating this saw model.
Saw Measuring Systems
Achieve even greater accuracy with optional Saw Measuring Systems. Operators can choose between Fixed Foot or Flip Foot options to suit their cutting needs.
- Flip Foot Measuring Systems: Ideal for cutting smaller materials, especially those under 4 feet long. The Flip Foot option allows easier access to retrieve smaller pieces from the enclosed cutting area.
- Fixed Foot Measuring Systems: Best for larger, repeatable cuts that require a consistent stop position.
Investing in these accessories increases the saw’s functionality and creates a safer, more efficient cutting experience.
