Re: Overarm Guard Modification

David P. Best All Messages By This Member #134425 开云体育 John, you can see my remote-release setup here: ?https://flic.kr/s/aHskt9MBRv One my machine, the system that locks the overhead swivel-arm in place is a spring loaded detent actuator. ?From your photos, it appears that the Kipp lever in the photo actually threads into a tapped hole in the swivel arm? ?Or is that Kipp lever just pressing against the swivel-arm and it’s somehow locked/stopped on the opposite side? ?Please post a few additional photos that more-fully illustrate how this arm is unlocked to swivel forward. ?Also, what is the diameter of the Kipp lever threaded shaft - I’m guessing it’s just under 10mm?

This is a nuisance if all that is needed is to get the guard out of the way to check a set-up. I think some saws have a more convenient set-up. If I recall correctly David Best once described being able to pull a wire to release the arm, from the operator position. Has anyone modified the bolt connection to make it a quick-release? Any good ideas? The picture shows the bolt, with a Kip lever, on my saw. <IMG_4907.jpeg> -- John Hinman Boise ID K700S and A941
