i found a reference to an ad from 1985 Fine Woodworking shows this saw, i'm sure you can google the following txt to find the post i found here. http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/woodworking-and-woodworking-machinery/ultimate-10-inch-tablesaw-226303/index3.html
...The only MM brochure I have is the Ulmia 1710S saw...
Very nice piece of equipment.
One mite say it's the cat's meow.
If you're listening Sawstop, MAKE ONE OF THESE.
I know! This saw is incredible!
How did they not dominate the table saw industry back then! Mind blowing!
I have been looking for one for years!!!!!!!
I have a Swiss-made Inca tablesaw with a slot mortising table much like this model. I like it very much. On these models the arbor is fixed and so if you want a bevel cut you must turn the entire table rather than turning the blade angle. It is a bit dicey when you try to rip bevel cuts at a 45 degree angle because the piece must be held very tightly against the fence as gravity wants to move the piece towards the blade
I had one of these and sold it to a furniture company I worked for. Best tablesaw I've ever used.
It is a great machine, I used to work with it at my old company. I am planning to buy a vintage one next year. They are still available here in Germany. "Ulmia" comes from the city of Ulm, the producing company was "Ott"
Btw: Riving knifes are mandatory over here since the 1960es.
