WRONG
If the blade does not turn when the motor is running, the belt
has failed. To inspect or replace the belt, remove the belt
cover screws. Remove the belt cover. Inspect the ribs of the
belt for wear or failure. Check belt tension by squeezing the
belt as shown in Figure 22. The belt halves should almost
touch when squeezing firmly with the thumb and index finger.
To adjust the tension, loosen, but do not remove, the four
Phillips head screws shown. Then rotate the set screw on
the top of the motor plate casting until the proper tension is
achieved. Tighten the four screws securely and replace the
belt cover.
NOTE: Over tightening the belt will cause premature motor
failure.

Maintenance
1. All bearings are sealed. They are lubricated for life and
need no further maintenance.
2. Periodically clean all dust and wood chips from around
AND UNDER the base and the rotary table. Even
though slots are provided to allow debris to pass
through, some dust will accumulate.
3. The brushes are designed to give you several years of
use. If they ever need replacement follow the instruc-
tions on page 7 or return the tool to the nearest service
center for repair. Service center locations are packed
with your tool.
Repairs
To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
maintenance and adjustment (including brush inspection
and replacement) should be performed by authorized ser-
vice centers or other qualified service organizations, always
using identical replacement parts.
