The handle casting of this radial arm saw is an interesting part that is designed so that the handle has the capacity to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise within the yoke that the motor and saw are attached to. The handle casting also contains certain tooth-like bevel angle pre-sets so that...

I have a bevel freeze problem on my Craftsman 10 inch Model 113.29441 radial arm saw. When the thumb bevel release tab is lifted, the saw handle won't rotate clockwise or counter-clockwise (thus the motor won't rotate to make bevel cuts). I removed the motor from the yoke; removed the yoke from...

Thanks very much Highball...I know it's not a foreign build. Thanks for the model 867 number. Yes it works but is beginning to show tea spoon size leaks after use. I haven't checked yet the source of the leaks. I bought this jack at auction in 1968. Some idiot I was bidding against made me...

Can anyone identify the model number of this Walker floor jack? All I can see is Walker Mfg Co; 3000 lbs; Model ? Series D; Lift-A-Car; Lift Range 3 7/8 to ? The critical model data has been obliterated by use over the years. Can anyone identify this model? Here is a link to my pics of...

Hiball offered this advice with my additional issues understanding the mechanical design and adjustment of the release valve on the MVP jack: http://i1104.photobucket.com/albums/h336/windswept4/Hydraulic%20Floor%20Jack/mvpreleasevalveassembly.jpg “There is only 1 ball in release and it is...

MVP Floor Jack 1875 Kilogram Capacity "made in china" All the pics I have are in this album: http://s1104.photobucket.com/albums/h336/windswept4/Hydraulic%20Floor%20Jack/

Here are 3 more pics showing greater detail of the Tank Nut, Winding spider gear, release valve 1/2 moon drive shaft and its threading, release valve assembly nut and its internal threading and its threading for seating within the pump block, 1/2 moon washer within the block and finally the...

Hiball: Great explanation and I will work with that description to see if I can draw upward (off of bottom) the inside reverse-threaded rod by rotating the spider gear clockwise while simultaneously threading the assembly (clockwise) into the block. thank you very much.

Hi Hiball! Thank you for such a quick response. I think I corrected the photo link problem and I hope you can now see the photos. The instructions say "Rotate the gear to the Right" Does this mean rotate the spider gear on the assembly clockwise? (I get confused because the slave spider...

I can’t thank Hiball enough for his great tutorial. I did want to add some of my own photos and note that my jack seems to be almost exactly like Binovc’s MVP jack. My jack claims to be "BlackHawk" with an 1,875 Kg capacity # GG920904416. The label says it was made in China and it...

More info from me: The release valve drive (a small 1/8 inch half moon drive shaft) turns clockwise to seat a 4th ball (check valve) and counterclockwise to unseat the ball. That ball rests directly under the half moon drive shaft that is driven by torqueing the jack handle shaft clockwise or...

kell.....i have the buzz box too; and, like you, I am also looking for user suggestions as to a suitable Mig. Please share any reader suggestions! Thanks [email protected]

Hiball did such a good job on his tutorial called the Overseas Jack Rebuild Tutorial, I'm hoping someone can address my jack specific question: I acquired a floor jack with no identification other than it is painted red and claims to be a "BlackHawk" with an 1,875 Kg capacity # GG920904416...
