Did I install it, No. Did either of my 520's (which did also come with covers) have one installed, No. Is it difficult to turn without the new "gizze whizzle" tool, Not at all. Do I plan to order the tool, not unless Shopsmith or another wise source can convince me of the need. Do I intend to enter into further posts regarding this subject? No way I want to go thru the wheel discussion syndrome again. :eek: Jim

How about just sending me the specs for the two screws?

Why don't you just go to a hardware store with hub in hand?

OR

You could look in your manual. Again, I say - LOOK IN YOUR MANUAL.

Shopsmith PowerPro Headstock

Items #78 and #79

Shopsmith Part # 120382 - Flat Washer

Shopsmith Part # 516027 - 1/4-20x5/8 Button Head Screw

You'll need two nuts but you'll have to get that information on your own. I forgot to to look when I had the manual in hand and I'm not going to go back across town just to look.

You did get an operators manual when you bought your PowerPro - right?

Could you not use a 5/16" rachet socket wrench to get all the torque you need.

[quote="JPG40504"]Better yet, some pix!]If you REALLY want pictures I'll send you some JPG. Pictures of a 1/4-20x5/8 and two spring nuts and two flat washers?:rolleyes:

How is this for starters?

and these

and then these.

Gee whiz all the poor guy wanted was to know what screws Shopsmith recommended. I would think it would be easy enough for someone that has the guard on their SS to simply remove the screws and take a pic or give a description of them.

Sure you can use any screw that will do the job but if you want to keep your SS in original mode you must use the exact screws SS normally uses here.
Any one in original car restoration can appreciate this.

Well, getting back to the original them of this thread:
1) I never knew there was such a thing as a hub cover
2) Don't think I'll buy the tool handle
3) I never though of using a coupler to turn the shaft. I always used the hub on the auxilary end. Using the coupler will make it a lot easier to do!

For crying out loud! You work for Amazon or something? Hell I can go to ACE and actually finger them buggers if observing generic hardware was the intent!

Point is we be trying to determine what SS uses!!!(almost all the time)

So as ED said anyone who has OEM screws etc, please share a pix with those of us merely trying to get Paul an accurate answer to his question!











Then again maybe the desert heat is getting fiesty!:D

I think the simple solution is to call shopsmith and say I need these parts that you forgot to supply me with. If they are in stock they should be at your house in a couple of days and you will have the the parts they are using.
