... Read more setscrew
9 Remove hinge pins (may require drilling a small hole in each, and using small sheet-metal screw to pull)
10 Press new wheel shaft into hinge plate from wheel side of plate (must be straight or wheel adjustment bushing won\'t thread in)
11 Remove wheel adjustment bushing from old hinge plate
12 Install wheel adjustment bushing to same depth as original setting (be careful not to cross thread - it\'s easy to damage the threads)
13 Drill through top of hinge plate into shaft for retention pin (oops, needed new pin - you can\'t do this after assy)
14 Put hinge plate in position and press pins in place
15 Reinstall hinge plate assy onto saw
16 Flip tension device into place and install tension screw, spring and nut
17 Reinstall upper wheel cover and left blade guard and any other housing components
18 Install upper wheel - bearing nut should not be over tightened - proper tension is snug, with no additional drag on bearings (spin the wheel while tightening to verify)
19 Install and adjust blade tracking - low tension with guides out of the way
20 Check that the upper and lower wheel are co-planar by viewing from right side of machine - this affects blade tracking match of upper and lower wheels
21 Adjust planetary, if needed (must remove blade and upper wheel to access front and rear setscrews on hinge plate pin)
22 Reassemble, adjust blade tracking and recheck planetary as needed
23 Adjust blade guides
24 Close covers
24 Plug in
25 Try it
The hardest part was getting the hinge out of the support housing. Had to drill the old hinge to get the pins out then it was just matter of putting it back together. If you don\'t have a press it maybe a bit tricky to hammer the wheel that into the hinge
