Thanks for this, fantastic! I have passed the info on.

If passing the info on included the photo of a panel I showed in post #18, I suspect you may get a response that theirs doesn't look like that!! But I imagine the components may be similar nonetheless.

Just for my own interest I was looking around at the older Ortza table saws, and they vary in control panel layout and panel position, even for the same model (examples below!) More recent machines have a control 'pod' hanging down from the table, and the photo you received (post #8) seems to be more that design.
The one they're trying to repair is dated 1998, so I guess that exact indicator is now obsolete, but at least we know it's 240V from the first photo. If they accurately measure the diameter of the hole in their panel, I'm sure an equivalent can be found, though it may require crimping connectors onto the existing wires.
Best of luck with this - I'm surprised there's not someone available on-site who could help sort it out!

All three designs are essentially identical. A 'power on' lamp, a 'rotation direction of blade' switch, an indicator lamp to show which way the blade is spinning, and a start button. Stop button is present on some, but not obvious on others.

It seems there are two saw blades on these tables, a 'scoring blade' which cuts ahead of the main blade (and rotates in the opposite direction to it), and then the main blade does the cutting through. They each run in their respective directions, but I don't believe reverse. I think the switches are just to stop and start their respective blades, with an overall power switch (or e-stop) on some models.

Could well be. I only have experience of one table saw of this kind of size, in my son in law's factory unit, but that only has one blade AFAIK.
