ss 510 tablebar and tubes #514344
Folks,
I just bought a 510 upgrade for my 500 through another source used. Everything is fine except I beleive I am missing one part. The tubes were removed from the table bar for packing. There was one metal pin that holds the tube to the table bar. Should there have been two one for each tube? Second does anyone know the part number. I look at my exploded views and don't even see these pins. I will call SS on Thurs when they come back to work just asking to see if I need one more. Merry Chirstmas everyone and Happy New Year.

Hi,
I see the part you are asking about on my system but the parts blowout doesn't show it nor is it listed in the parts description... or at least I don't see it either.
I personally have never had mine apart to that point so I really don't know what the part looks like. I assume you have looked in the packing materials and contacted the seller about this?
Anyway it looks like you might have to wait until you can talk to Shopsmith.

The floating table and extension table tubes should each have two studs each. The main worktable tubes have three studs each. On the machines, I have had apart, the studs are welded to the tubes. There is a special spacer washer that goes between the tube and the table. The older tubes may have had a different attachment arrangement from the welded studs.
Good luck.
Good luck.

There is a thread here on the topic, older tables had screws with hex heads that were very difficult to align. Later tops had studs (some may have been welded) along with screws and washers. The studs are by far the best approach, they are a standard hardware part as are the nuts and washers.
If I completely misunderstood your question a picture would help.

Ed,
You are right that is what I am looking at. They are pressed in I had to use a hammer to put the only one I got in. I may have to go thru the box of peanuts to see if maybe if fell out during shipping. Or fabricate one It is just a steel pin. I will try to take a picture in the morning. Thanks all for the help.

Once you get that pin, if there is a vise or any other way to press in place, try that .You have already used up 50% of your luck. I would suggest perhaps putting the pin in the freezer overnight for your second effort. Just my $.02- I'm no SS expert, but I have pressed plenty of bearing races and pins.mt-Is this one of the pairs of pins in assembly 247?

I found the pin in the bottom of the box under all the packing peanuts. Whew!! Used a hammer to get it in and I have a complete 510 now. Wow you guys where right what a difference from the 500.
Just tried to put an image up but not sure about the URL I don't think it wants C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Desktop as the URL. I have some learning to do to post an image. But for now I wanna make some saw dust on the Christmas present. SHMBO is on the phone with her parents so I got alot of time to play.
