protruding studs at the back of the saw. See
Figure 15.
7. Tighten down setscrews in top of cast motor
bracket with hex wrench as shown in Figure
15.
8. Use an assistant or get a support block (for
example, a 2x4) approximately 21" to 22"
long. Lift motor up and position block under
the motor to support its weight.
9. Slightly loosen motor base screws.
10. Confirm belt alignment using a straight edge
as shown in Figure 16. NOTE: If belt needs
aligning, loosen the set screws on a pulley
and slide the pulley forward or backward on
the shaft as needed. Re-tighten set screws.
11. Mount the drive belt to the pulleys by raising
motor off the support block. With the drive
belt mounted, lower the motor back to rest
on the support block.
12. Position pulley cover seat in line with
pulleys, but not so it will interfere with belt
operation.
13. Adjust the motor all the way back on the
slots of the base, then move it all the way to
the right. See Figure 17. This will prevent
the motor from rising above the table when
tilted at 45 degrees. Tighten down the motor
base screws.
14. Remove wing nuts with washers and install
pulley cover, as shown in Figure 17, over
the spacer and carriage bolt. Install the wing
nut and washers and tighten down the pulley
cover so that it fits snugly over the pulley
cover seat.
15. Remove support block. Test for unhindered
operation of the belt by turning the
components by hand. Adjust as necessary.
