Think I found problem motor sheave need oil. But now have a proble with quill I was removeing to clean and handle slipped and now think spring is off
how do I get to it

Yes with out the belt on every thing turns free!! But put the belt on and the motor freezes and blows the breaker. But I have taken the hole head a part and am cleaning and lubeing everything and we'll see what happens when it's all back together.

Just got a Shop Smith given to me It's about 30 years old but was only used a few times and has been sitting for 25 years. With the V belt off the motor runs and everything seems to move very freely BUT when I put the belt on it freezes up. Can't figture it out
