Just put the Powermatic in a few months ago and they drop the SawStop in my lap. Now I gotta make this one work. Anybody got some aspirins?

I think that some "surgery" is in order
Do the runners line up? I assume no, that would be to convenient.
No... It will look like one was routed wrong ...
Man that is one beautiful saw though!
If at first you don't succeed, redefine success!
Do you keep both or only one? if both then put them back to back.
You can install the new one into the outfeed table of the old one; then install a rip blade in one and cross-cut on the other (or dado, etc).
They use each other as out-feed table, saves room. Take a look at this one: http://vintagemachinery.org/photoind...ges/4290-B.jpg
Problem is I don't have time as I'm backed up at work. I may and try to put my helper with maintenance to get it done next week. It's a bit wider and deeper than the Powermatic.
I asked for the Powermatic slider as they are going to remove it from service but got turned down. I'll probably pitch a fit as I want the slider for the SawStop
