Hello all
My BT3100 is starting to resist raising the blade (adjusting up). It almost feels like the handle/crank is binding- getting difficult to turn the crank when raising the blade. Not so difficult to lower.
I have used my saw for about 2-3 years. I have never taken it apart for cleaning or fixing- but if now is the time to do so, i thought i would see if anybody remembers fixing this particular type of problem, before i start.
i have basic-to-intermediate level repair skills.
any suggestions on what to look for or clean- or adjust first?
is there a repair manual/article that i should be reading somewhere?
thanks guys... louis m
