510/520 Upper Saw Guard

Post by johnmccrossen »

A friend of mine has a 505/520 with a damaged upper saw guard. There are no anti-kickback parts on the riving knife. If someone could post a picture of what they look like, it would be appreciated. I have not been able to find separate part numbers for these on the Shopsmith parts list. Thanks, John McCrossen

John,
I don't think are any anti-kickback parts on the riviting knife. Try this; http://www.shopsmith.com/ownersite/part ... xpview.htm

The Riving Knife Assembly seems the only way to get them.

Dusty and all, Thank you. At least now we will know what the parts look like so we can do more searching. I expect the pieces are long gone by now, and they can't be purchased separately. Thanks again, John McCrossen
