My next problem is the link (coupling Kit) from the power head to the band saw does not work from everything we've tried. It should connect from the collet draw rod port (Upper Port) to the band saw shaft. But, the connection collars - end is wrong and does not match the upper port. We ruled out using the power take off (lower Port) as it is too low to match up. Without manuals it's tough. We may be missing a part. Steve

And the SS bandsaw is NOT standard(the reason to know if it is a SS clone).

I think we need pix of what you have. Few of us have seen a machine like yours.

What he does NOT have is the SS shaft for the driving hub.

Another YouTube picture of my problem.
Look up KilnBilly777 and see the Smithy Super Shop Coupling Attachments. Great but no instructions. Steve

Found the link to the video. The bandsaw appears to be a clone of the SS bandsaw, No idea about the coupler.
