Milwaukee Counter Balance
Model Number: 42-87-0110
The Milwaukee 42-87-0110 is a genuine OEM Counter Balance for the Milwaukee 6480 and 6480-20 Panel Saw. The counter balance is the weighted assembly that offsets the weight of the carriage and motor assembly as it travels vertically along the panel saw's cutting column — allowing the operator to move the carriage up and down with minimal effort and hold it in position without it falling or creeping under the weight of the motor and blade assembly. Without the counter balance, the carriage weight would require significant force to lift and would need to be physically locked at every position. The counter balance uses a weight-and-cable or spring mechanism to equalize the carriage weight throughout its full travel range. A damaged, seized, or failed counter balance that causes the carriage to drop freely or require excessive force to lift requires replacement to restore safe, effortless carriage movement on the panel saw.
Using a genuine Milwaukee OEM counter balance ensures the correct weight, cable geometry, and mounting configuration for the Milwaukee 6480/6480-20 Panel Saw. Always verify your catalog number and serial number on Milwaukee's website before ordering to confirm this is the correct counter balance for your specific unit.
