Hi Guys,
Been using the BT3100 for several years now and never had a problem with it. Tonight when I went to raise up the blade so I could reinstall the blade guard, it wouldn't elevate. I can change the angle easily, but when I try to crank it up, nothing happens. I got under the saw and can see that the threaded rod is turning, but the saw is not moving. It looks to me like the threads that ride up and down the rod are stripped. Is this likely? If so, how hard a part would it be to replace?
