Because of health problems, I've had a long absence from woodworking and as a result most of my power tools set unused for quite some time. Now as I'm able to do some woodworking I'm spending most of my time getting the equipment back into working order. Seems like there's plenty of problems to take care of. My saw, a 3 hp single phase Powermatic 66 is in really good condition, belts and motor is fine. I ran into this problem when I was building a couple of cutoff sleds for the saw.
After getting the crosscut adjusted and cutting what seems to be a perfect 90", I move on to build a small miter sled for making boxes. After adjusting the blade tilt to 45" and finishing that sled I then returned to blade to 90" and found the blade had moved to the right a bit and no longer matched the slot in the 90" cutoff sled.
It's almost like the arbor with the tiling of the blade. The set screw on the arbor shaft is definitely secure. Any ideas?
