SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20190903-03763-2147377896. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Product: Porter Cable PCX362010 (10 Inch Portable Table Saw - Porter Cable PCX362010). Incident: I received a recall notice about Porter Cable's PCX362010 10" Portable Table Saw - for the possibility of the motor overheating and creating a fire hazard. Strangely enough, this saw did start on fire and I had to replace it about a year ago, so I discarded it. The recall stipulates that I tell them the model and serial number of the product, but since it was actually on fire and since I had to toss a bucket of water on it and hose it down, I no longer have an intact nameplate to reference. I do though have the original box in which it was packed, complete with the Lowe's PO number under which it was shipped. So [REDACTED] and manufacture date 10/16, Lowe's Item number [REDACTED]. Anyway - this item did start on fire - there's a recall to refund those who have the serial number, but since mine was "lost in a fire" I have no recourse. Since my family gave it to me as a gift, I don't have the original receipts - but it was given as a Christmas present in 2016 Description: This recall involves Porter-Cable brand 10� table saws with model number PCX362010. The saws have a gray body with black accents and the Porter-Cable logo. The model number and serial number are printed on the table nameplate, located on the back of the saw body near the bottom. Remedy: Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled table saws and contact [REDACTED] for a refund. Incidents/Injuries: [REDACTED] has received 61 reports of the table saw motors overheating and causing fires. One consumer reported smoke damage to their home. No injuries have been reported. Sold At: Lowe�s Stores nationwide
