Difficulty
Easy

Less than 15 minutes
Tools Used

Parts Used
1) On the left side of the saw (from the front) remove the up limit bolt
2) Allow the return spring to raise the saw, be careful not to let it go to far or it can effect the operation of the laser pointer (I found this out the hard way)
3) Use a screw driver or a punch to remove the broken stopper pin, be sure the old O ring comes out also
4) Put a little tool oil or WD40 on the O ring on the new stopper pin
5) Slide the new stopper pin into location
6) Pull down the saw and replace the up limit bolt and tighten
You're done

Tools Used
Screwdriver, Allen Keys (Hex)
Parts Used
Extend the rear support (holder part # 137) to avoid tipping
Remove special screw (#290) from the Link (#288) freeing the saw blade assembly.
Remove Hex Socket HD. Bolt (243) from the gear case (244). This is located toward the rear of the link. When engaged it rests on the Hinge (34) preventing the saw from over travel.
With the Link and Hex Socket HD. Bolt now removed the saw blade assembly will now travel beyond what is normal in the raised position.
Now remove the two bolts holding the laser assembly (10) in place and move it just slightly to the left.
You can now remove the Stop Pin (Lock Pin) pulling it in toward the laser assembly.
