The diagrams showed the exact parts I needed.
The parts came very quickly. They were exact replacement. My 30 year old chop saw is working great again. I will order more parts for my table saw.

The parts fit like a glove and work Great.
The parts can in a very reasonable length of time. They even fit. I got some from another company and they didn't fit at all. It would be nice if you sent drawings on how to install the parts. It's hard to put back together when some one else took it apart. You have all the pieces there and now you have to figure out how they go together.
Thanks

Removed blade and old parts from broken guard, installed the new retracting blade guard. It's a 2 piece plastic guard. So getting it in correct position is important for smooth operation when lowering the saw to perform a cut. The smaller portion of the guard needs to lock in position on a notch on metal housing surrounding blade and guard. Once I discovered that, it went really quick reassembling it all. Works flawlessly. I also replaced table inserts and other parts that were broken. I received all the parts I had ordered with no problems, and they were delivered in a timely manner.
