Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20190906-B23FF-2147377837. Severity: Incident, No Injury. Matched catalog product: Porter Cable PCX362010. Incident: Was using the Porter Cable pcx362010 table saw at a customers home when it started smoking real bad . The saw continued to smoke after it was cut off and unplugged. Porter Cable's phone number they listed is not a working number. They are only offering 75.00 for refund of the saw and we paid over double that. They are also wanting you to destroy the saw and mail it to them. This is too much considering how much shipping cost for a product that size! The saw was less than a year old when it caught fire.
