How To Change The Bearings On A Craftsman 100 Table Saw Restoration Part 4

In this video its all about the table saw arbor bearings and how I replace the old ones for some fresh sealed type new ones.using a few specialty tools to do this process anyone can change theirs bearings to freshen up their saw . Craftsman 100 saws and contractor style saws with similar internals all will need the bearings replaced at some point , and having a resource for the bearings and watching a clear instruction on how to do this will save you time and money .

Good to have you back! In the spring I'm gonna refurb my Craftsman 10" table saw and this video will come in handy! Thankz

[@electricwally]

Hi Patrick. I have the same saw and restored it as well. However I did not remove and replace the arbor bearings on the main arbor shaft. After watching this part 4 video, I decided to leave well enough alone as my arbor bearings still move very freely. In your video you also mentioned that the original bearings were still good thus I decided not open that can of worms. If there are any bearing issues in the future I will attend to them as per your helpful instructions as I already know how to quickly disassemble the saw. Also, I use my saw infrequently and can only assume the original arbor bearings will outlive me as they are of good quality.

[@halken007]

glad your back to the saw rebuild Patrick great to see it all coming together

[@richarddettore3034]

So cool to watch someone like you who has patience! Good job!

[@snubn0sed]

Too funny. I was looking at why my bearing behind the pulley wasn’t sliding out. I couldn’t see the snap-ring. Thanks for making the video!

[@Patricksworkshop]

Thanks for watching .

[@SteveCarmichael]

Wow, you're redoing everything. Nice job Patrick! Looking forward to the next step.

[@tribucelmar5144]

Howdy Patrick, glad to see this, I love me some old machinery restoration and you did a good tip-full job of it. Thans and Keep on trucking ! (from France)

[@wdh375xen]

Great video! I reconditioned my fathers 8" craftsman table saw last year, also from the 60's. Lots of satisfaction and runs like new. I couldn't figure out how to get the bearings out so thanks for that. Fortunately they seemed ok.

[@bobbystanley8580]

I really enjoyed you showing how to do the bearings. I am restoring an old Delta bandsaw and am thinking about changing the bearings. I have it almost completely apart so it seems logical.

[@Patricksworkshop]

it would prolly be smart to change them since its all apart already just be sure the new ones are the same before installing good luck

[@MachineRight]

Glad to see this series back Patrick! Love the video

[@KSFWG]

Patrick! Good to see a video from you! I can't wait to see the rest of the restoration.

Great demonstration Patrick. Good to see the saw series back buddy

[@tipsclubs01]

Great Video. I'm restoring a Craftsman 10 in. T-Saw 113.27970, getting ready to order bearings N/D 77120 or Craftsman Pt. # 3509. Pounded the arbor out of housing after removing the cover and clip, but the bearing on the blade side had PIN holding the blade mounting washer, punched the pin out, the blade washer came off, and the bear came off. Never seen one like that before. Thank You for you excellent video. I learned something from it. Keep up the good work. I save the video for future use.

[@lylekobberstad8571]

[@Patricksworkshop]

Thanks Mark i'm working on bringing this saw back to life and i'm so close thanks for watching buddy

[@Tom-xy7mx]

Glad to see your continuing the vids! I watched your other parts last year when I was restoring a 1967 craftsman table saw given to me by a neighbor. Needless to say, I sure wish I had this info before because pulling that arbor out was a pain for me haha. Hope to see your finished project. Im sure your saw will be working great, I know mine is. :)

[@Patricksworkshop]

thanks for watching Jose sorry it took so long as you all know life gets in the way sometimes ,but i am done with the saw restoration and the next video of the assembly is in the editing stages should be out on sunday jan 29 2017 thanks for the support and for your comment

The saw is coming along awesome man ! Great video, almost like you had some mechanical background or something :-)

[@MarkMcCluney]

nice vid mate, excellent camera angles. interesting to hear the trans Atlantic terms for components - in Ireland and the UK we call those clips circlips. at least I think that's how it's spelled! thanks for sharing mate.

[@ESCAGEDOWOODWORKING]

NIce work dude..!!

[@erniesouza6263]

Glad your back on this project. I had looked for it several times. Are you a mechanic by trade? Great job so far. Look forward to seeing how it comes out.

i love old tools... they are made forever! :) ...I would make some thin grease in the empty space between the bearings... kinda self outo service ;)

[@killxswitch]

"Comes with instructions... I don't need those." LOL. Great video series.

[@willemkossen]

Nice! Long process though!

[@mrbreezeet1]

I just got a craftsman 113.29901. Do you have a video showing how to get the arbor assembly out of the saw?

[@mrbreezeet1]

What does that center E clip on the shaft do? Also, how does the arbor housing come out of the saw?

[@mspetersen]

I'm currently rebuilding the same saw. What model bearing for the Arbor did you get & where did you source them?

[@KellyBrownwrsd]

Good info and demonstration. I've done similar procedures many times but with way more swearing. lol

[@mrbreezeet1]

Did you tap on the outer race when you tapped pn on with the scoket or the inner race really should tap it on the inter raco

[@opasworkshop8373]

nice job Patrick I thought you had given up on that series I'm glad you didn't.

[@hokieinidaho]

So, you acknowledge the longevity of "Oooosa" bearings (made in USA) but then replace with Chinese Bearings. My Timkin family members would be so proud...

[@Patricksworkshop]

woah calm down the cheap bearings were all i had at the time i have already swapped them out for USA made bearings

[@joebrewer5885]

@@Patricksworkshop So what kind of bearings did you replace them with and where can I get some?

[@dbbyleo]

Great video. Thanks for making this. Question... I’ve got a 10year old Delta 36-978. I just noticed that when the motor is on the belt (ie the pulley is weighted with the motor), it throws the blade/arbor off alignment by almost 1/32. With the motor off the belt and no weight on the pulley, the blade is aligned. And with the motor off the belt, I can detect a very subtle play if I try to wiggle the blade... just enough play to hear a distinct “click”. I suspect it’s the beating, but I’m not a pro, so while this table saw is 10 years old, it’s only been used a hand full of times, so I can’t imagine how it could already have gone bad. Honestly, this problem could have been there since the beginning... I just didn’t spend enough time checking alignment back then to notice and hadn’t needed it for fine cuts until now. My question is... is it worth going through the effort of replacing the bearing... or is this characteristic of some make/model of table saw?

[@JustinLevine]

Wait. This cant be the same guy I was with on Google Hangouts... That guy said he dosnt make videos..... :) great work. Cant wait to see the next step

[@Patricksworkshop]

yes this is the same guy and I'm back for the new year to bust out awesome videos and to build some awesome projects in 2017 thanks for watching

[@JSWMobileMedia]

Patrick....thanks for the excellent video. I think this is one of the most detailed how to video series I have seen regarding refurbishing a table saw. I got a question regarding removal of the arbor bearings on a Craftsman 80 table saw. The housing design is a bit different, but the rod and bearing set up looks essentially identical. Thing is...I can't for the life of me get the first bearing (opposite the pulley bearing) to come out. I have beat on it and I have use a three jaw puller, with absolutely no movement. There are no snap rings anywhere on the bearing, or I would have removed those. Any suggestions?

[@mstrozzi1]

I'm having the same issue, and I wish this comment was answered! Did you by chance ever figure it out?

[@cardwellti]

Anyone know where to source the bearings and the part number? I have the same saw completely redone but skipped the bearing because I didnt know where to get them.

[@bobdickweed]

yup great video man...;-p

[@eeb7269]

Will be doing the bearings soon in my table saw. Anyone know of a company that sells USA made bearing for this saw?

[@gh778jk]

some terminology : the loose half-moon shaped bit is the key (Woodruff key) the place in the shaft in which it sits is the keyseat. The slot in the pulley that slides over the shaft is the keyway. For the sake of sanity... do NOT hit the end of a shaft with a steel hammer??? Use a brass/soft hammer or if you don't have that use a bit of wood in between! And I have to agree with a previous commenter, when changing out bearings...don't go 'cheap'.... you'll just have to replace them again very soon.... and you may damage something much more expensive while they are in use. Paddy

[@Codysooz]

Where did you get your purchased parts? I am also going to replace the bearings and the pulley.

[@Patricksworkshop]

awesome ok here is a link to the pulley i used amzn.to/2uiEk9Z and here is the bearing I used www.ebay.com/itm/Arbor-Bearings-Set-of-2-Sears-Craftsman-10-Belt-Drive-Table-Saw-3509-113-xxxxxx-/321117503609?epid=1824589987&hash=item4ac4184079:m:m2Mj1ATVRszxH9JDjANDHbQ and i used a link belt to eliminate viblration amzn.to/2tIM43w i think thats all I replaced besides the motor and switch here the switch i used amzn.to/2uiCCFu everything else i did was just magor cleaning and paint good luck with your project

[@mrbreezeet1]

Did you have two real flat washers One Wave washer and the other one I believe is just flat not a wave washer I find them on my bench after I had it all back together and I don't know where they go

[@humblecourageous3919]

Do you know the significance of the key weight? My husband's Craftsman "100" doesn't have good power even though the motor is OK. There had been an issue with the key weight before because we bought a package of 4 and he replaced the one. We just don't remember why as it was about 15 years ago. Still have 3 more key weights but don't remember if that affected the power or if it just made it wobble.

[@Patricksworkshop]

the key is what keeps the pully from free spinning on the shaft so basically, it keeps the pulleys on the arbors and allows the power to transfer via the belt there is a small grub screw that locks them in place as well

[@humblecourageous3919]

@@Patricksworkshop Thank you.

[@brucetraudt1571]

hmmmm?? never mentioned the size of the bearing?? i want to do mine good video.

[@user-nr8gh9wq3n]

When I use bearings made in china, I remove dust shield, remove grease that came in them from china, and replace with a good grease. Grease from china looks like vaseline. Put the dust shield back on. They will last a lot longer this way.

[@HebronGrandpa]

As a VoAg teacher I cringe at you using the wrong tool for the job. Good job on rebuilding the saw.

[@Patricksworkshop]

well don't cringe too much i hear it hurts after a while ,thanks for watching so what would you have done different teach i am interested in hearing what you got oh and thanks for watching

[@Jason-jn9sk]

Well, one shouldnt hit a driveshaft with a metal hammer. Brass hammers are made for that. Lacking that, use a block of wood to cushion the shaft. Also, its good to avoid using a flat file on a round shaft. Emery cloth is much better.

[@mrbreezeet1]

@@Jason-jn9sk that file isn't hurting nothing. He was just Knocking off burrs. The bearing don't ride any where near where he filed. Even if it did, it wouldn't hurt it. Yes, in theory, shouldn't use steel hammer on the shaft. But light tap won't hurt it. Did the author drive the bearing on by the outer race? If pressing bearing on to a shaft, I would press it on using the inner race only.

[@TheSeeker1960]

You do a decent job with restoration but you lack common sense in tool use.

[@prozach5535]

You lost me at chinese bearing. Any American made bearing is a lot better than a new chinese bearing. That is painful to watch

[@Patricksworkshop]

hey Zach i olny used those bearing for a few months i have already swapped them out with us made ones at the time of the video it was all i could get

[@prozach5535]

@@Patricksworkshop I was thinking out loud. I did watch all 7 videos and you did great work on your saw. It has actually inspired me to do something with my Craftsman 103.22160 which is similar to yours. I appreciate you taking the time to share your work on youtube.
