Saws - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support
Help! My husband has a Ryobi radial arm saw and
What is a timing belt in this case? I have two radial arm saws (a Sears and a Monkey Ward) and neither one had what I would call a time belt. My saws were direct drive (through they were gear reduction direct drive).
Is this a tooth belt of some type? If so, I doubt that it is anything really special like custom made for a run of saws. Someone must make such a thing.
Again, I dont know what we are looking at ... having said that ... were I looking for a special belt, Id first visit a good auto parts store ... not a big box nor fast food type but a genuine old fashioned auto parts place. The one with some greas on the counter. Ask the counterman or woman if they can help. Take your sample with you.
Next, I think I'd visit Gates Power (they make all kinds of belts) I could get you a link ... but hey ... you found this place didnt you? you can find gates belts!
As a last ditch effort, you could put a want add up at e-bay.
I hope some of these ideas help you find the part you need.
Please tell me more acout this belt for for my general knowledge. Thanks
Mastercraft miter saw 55-6884-0 manual
If you take it to an electrician, the issue may well be the suppressor capacitor, across the switch contact, will be short circuit.
Get it replaced with a suitable Class Y components and it will be working again. OR
thee switch is faulty. Replaceable by a commonly available spare part.
Being 15 years old, there is little hope of a spare parts manual but it is a very basic design and should be easily repaired by a competent engineer.
