If he doesn't want it, I'll 'take' it. It looks like I could make the riving knife portion into a 10E bracket(which I am currently missing/needing).mark-b wrote:Hey vzant!
I have not really followed this thread, but I got this with a couple of crap ERs and it is not for either. If you want it, it's yours. If not, maybe someone else can use it.

Both 58" arbors appear identical. I guess they are both 510/520 arbors? Other than the 500 guard not fitting, is there any other problem with using them on the 500?
Hi, Right now I think I have only the left-over hacksaw-template which is used to modify the table-tie-bar casting at the inner part of the outfeed side, to provide more clearance for the lower guard. I don't have the full instruction set any more. The 'dovetail block' which accepts the upper guard nestles pretty tightly against the outer part of the outfeed-side tie-bar casting, so you may be able to figure out those holes pretty readily. The lower shield which is not attached to the Quill, attaches to the table-tie bar. These days they have you attach it with 2 screws for maximum safety. In times past, it would attach with some wing-shaped twists in the tie bar from the factory.vzandt wrote:I need a set of instructions for attaching a 505875
upper and lower guard to a Mark V 500. I now have the guard system, but It looks like I need to drill a couple of holes to attach the upper guard and I am not sure how to hold the two parts of the lower guard together.
