    Vintage Porter Cable Model 125 Saw

    Looking for an owner's manual for this saw. It was my wife's late grandfather's saw and she was very close to him. I'd like to refurb it so it is like new again. Biggest challenge is that the arbor doesn't tighten up so the blades just sit there while the motor spins... The cord is old and...
