Jet says the part I need is obsolite. Its the block assy for the far side of the fence. Part # 57 in the exploded view of the manual.

Mine came with one (it's brown, but it came with one!) & I'd be willing to scan it if it'd help.

I, too, found it on Craigslist but drive a truck, thankfully:) I own a newer "fancier" Delta that I stripped the wings from & now use exclusively with a tenon jig. I absolutely love this saw, it's substantial fence, and old-school miter. Mine came with the saw guard and you're not missing out on much. I'm planning to add an overhead guard boom/dust collection for twice the price I paid for the saw. Money well spent. Rockler sells a router table that's compatible as a left-wing replacement, should you be interested. I share your excitement about this classic find.

Truly more information than you can imagine on the web. Wasn't what I was looking for, but great site. Cya later. Hi there, just doing some research for my Sharp website.

If you are missing the guard that goes around the blade on the cast iron top you have two options - to buy a new one, or make a wooden one yourself. These saw inserts can be found all over the internet, just do a search, and I'm sure you will find something. If you want to build your own, which is commonly done for narrow blades, or zero kerf work, just trace the opening and cut a piece that is the same thickness as the top. E Hi Robert,

The JET website also has a bunch more info, but it is kind of hard to navigate. Check out this page : http://www.waltermeier.com/us/manufacturing/en/service_support/manuals.html Good luck, and come back to let me know if you find one. Hi Dave,
