W1761/W1762 12" Table Saw with Riving Knife

SERVICE

To ensure optimum power transmission from the motor

to the blade, the flat belt must be in good condition.

Replace the belt if it becomes cracked, frayed, or glazed.

To remove the flat belt, do these steps:

1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!

2. Raise the motor all the way up, tilt it to 0°, and

open the motor cover.

3. Using a 14mm wrench, loosen the three motor

mounting hex nuts, shown in Figure 59, two turns,

and place a 12" long 4x4 block between the cabinet

and bottom of the motor, as shown in Figure 60 .

4. Lower the arbor assembly until the motor rests on

the wood block, as shown in

Figure 60, to reduce

tension on the flat belt.

Be careful not to damage

the motor, and do not force the arbor down further

when it becomes difficult to move the handwheel.

5. Tighten the motor mounting nuts to hold the motor

in place.

6. Raise the blade all the way up and remove the wood

block, table insert, blade guard and splitter or riving

knife, arbor nut, flange, and the saw blade.

7. Tilt the arbor to 20°.

8. Remove the deflector plate and the hex bolts and

flat washers securing it (

Figure 61), using a 10mm

wrench.

9. Using a 4mm wrench, remove the upper two button

head cap screws, and remove the spacers on the

belt cover plate shown in

Figure 61.
