1. Slide the belt and pulley guard bracket (I) Fig. 27, between
the motor plate (J) and motor mounting plate (K).
2. Place a 1/4" external tooth lockwasher on 1/4 -20 x 1-1/2"
hex head bolt. Insert the bolt (L) Fig. 27 through the hole in
the belt and pulley guard bracket (I) Fig. 27.
3. Position the belt and pulley guard bracket (I) Fig. 28, so that
the motor pulley (K) is centered and through the hole in the
belt and pulley guard bracket (I) Fig. 28. Tighten the four hex
nuts (C) Fig. 24 that fasten the motor to the motor mounting
plate.
4. Use a straight edge to align the motor pulley with the arbor
pulley in the saw cabinet. If necessary, adjust the motor
pulley (K) Fig. 28 in or out on the motor shaft.
5. Raise the motor and attach the drive belt (L) Fig. 29 to the
arbor pulley and the motor pulley (K) Fig 29. The weight of
the motor will provide the correct belt tension.
The motor end (N) Fig. 31 must be below the top of
the table surface. Immediately after attaching the belt, raise the
saw blade to its maximum height and tilt the saw blade 45°. Use a
straight edge (M) Fig. 31 to see if the motor end (N) Fig. 31 is below
the top of the table surface (O). If not, loosen the four hex nuts (F)
Fig. 24, reposition the motor, and tighten the nuts. Re-align the
motor pulley (K) Fig. 29 with the arbor pulley.

6. Place a 1/4" flat washer and a spacer (P) Fig. 28 on the 1/4
- 20 x 1-1/2" hex head screw (L). Thread a 1/4 - 20 hex nut
(Q) Fig. 28 on the screw post until it tightens the spacer on
the pulley guard (I) Fig. 28.
7. Install the belt guard (R) Fig. 30. Position it so that the 1/4-
20 x 1-1/2" hex head bolt (L) Fig. 28 goes into the hole in
the belt guard. Place a 1/4" external tooth lockwasher and
a 1/4-20 wing nut on the hex head bolt (S) Fig 30. Tighten
securely.
Do not allow the belt guard to contact the drive belt or the motor pulley.
