Attaching Handwheel; Mounting The Motor - Craftsman 113.197250 Operator's Manual

4. As you assemble your radial arm saw,
some of the holes in the parts will line up and
others will not. This happens because some
parts are used in other equipment or for other
purposes. Follow the instructions carefully.
The figures will show which holes should line
up in each step.

1. Locate the handwheel, hex bushing, screw,
and lockwasher.
1. Loosen the guard clamp screw and
remove the guard from the motor.
2. Use the arbor wrenches to remove the
blade from the saw. The arbor shaft has left-
handed threads, so you will have to turn the
nut clockwise to loosen.
3. Lock the rip lock.
4. Turn the handwheel in a clockwise direction
to raise the radial arm about 2 inches and
remove the styrofoam packing blocks.
5. Clean the small pieces of styrofoam off
the saw.
2. Place the hex bushing inside the handwheel.
3. The hex bushing has a small flat area on it
which matches a flat area on the elevation
shaft.
4. Align the two above flat areas and attach
the handwheel using a screw and lockwasher.
