BELT GUARD
CLAMP RING
MOTOR POWER CORD
S
h.
driver./Cake sure the screw engages the openings in
the ring and rotate the screw until the clamp ring
diameter just leaves enough clearance on motor
frame for the guard to be slipped easily under the
ring.
Hold the belt guard as shown in figure 43 and insert
the drive belt into the guard as shown. The lower end
of belt should contact the inner wall of the guard
so it will pass over the motor pulley when the guard
isslipped into place.
Slide the guard on end of motor, while holding it as
shown in figure 44, and slide the clamp ring over
the edge of guard leaving edge of ring approximately
1/2-inch from edge of guard. Do not tighten the
clamp ring at this time.
d. Grasp the belt between thumb and forefinger as
shown in figure 44 and, while looking down into the
guard "hook" the lower loop of belt onto the motor
pulley. Shift the guard on motor to center the belt
in the guard.
e. Continue to hold the belt on motor pulley, rotate the
guard downward and "'hook" upper end of belt onto
the saw pulley inside the base.
f. Rotate the elevation hand-wheel clockwise until it
stops,to place the saw blade in its highest position.
g. Positionthe belt guard so the belt clears the inside
of the guard at the upper position approximately
1/4-inch and the guard does not touch the under-
side of saw table. (See figure 45.) Correct positioning
of the belt guard is important. If the belt should be
permitted to rub against the guard it would soon
wear a s|ot in the guard.
h. Tighten the clamp ring to hold the guard securely
on motor.
i. Rotate the elevation hand-wheel counterclockwise to
lower the saw blade tothe lowest position and check
positionof guard, The beh should stillclear the inside
of the guard.
7. Adjusting Pivot Arm Screw.
This adjustment (figure 46) is necessary to prevent motor
vibration (screw too loose) and to permit the motor mount
to maintain correct belt tension whenever the saw blade is
raised or lowered with the elevation hand-wheel (screw
too" fight if belt tension is not maintained). When either of
these conditions are evident, adjust the screw as follows:
CAUTION: Do not tighten the pivot arm
screw to a locked position, as it would be
sheared off when the saw blade is raised.
