Step
Action
1
Mount the two side mounting angles to the cutter housing using 1/2”-13 x 1-3/4” long
bolts and 1/2” lock washers, hand tight only. Install the mounting angles where the main
shaft bearings were located with the two-hole flange at the bottom of the router. The
mounting angle with the saw blade guard mounting tab should be located on the side
opposite of the belts.
2
Mount a 1-3/4” pillow block bearing to each one of the mounting angles with 1/2”-13 x 1-
3/4” long bolts, 1/2” flat washers, and 1/2”-13 upset nuts, hand tight only.
3
Install the main shaft loosely through the two pillow block bearings. The side that has a
shoulder for the blade mounting collars and a center bolt hole should go on the side
opposite of the belts.
4
Tighten the 6 bolts for the bearing mounting angles and the 4 pillow block bearing bolts.
5
Install inner collar, drive pin, and outer collar onto main shaft using 1/4” x 7/8” long
keyway, 5/8” SAE flat washer, 5/8” lock washer, and 5/8”-11 x 4” left hand thread bolt.
6
Install two 1/4” x 90° barbed fittings onto the blade guard. The barbs should point to the
rear of the router when the guard is installed onto the router. Place the guard onto the
router. It may be necessary to cut a notch out of the frame gusset, and cut a couple of
links out of the chain deflector to accommodate the blade guard.
7
Align the main shaft in the pillow block bearings so that the concrete blade will be
centered in the blade guard (No blade is supplied with kit). Tighten the set screws on the
bearings to hold the main shaft in place.
8
Install the tapered lock bushing and the belt sheave onto the main shaft using hardware
that comes with the taper lock bushing. Align the belt sheave with the clutch assembly on
the engine.
9
Install the belts and tighten to 1/4” deflection at 10 lbs. of pressure.
10
Install the water pipe assembly. Align the two tabs with two holes in the switch cover
bracket on the handle bar. Attach with 1/4” x 3/4” bolt, 1/4” flat washer, and 1/4” nylon
lock nut.
11
Install 3/8” pipe elbow and hose connector to water pipe assembly. Locate on the belt
side of router; orientation should follow the line of the handle.
