I know a bunch of folks here have HTC mobile bases. I just got one (for a saw I haven't even ordered yet; rumors of long HTC lead times are apparently greatly exaggerated). I'm having a little trouble with one part of the assembly.
Specifically, I'm having trouble getting the bolt that holds the brake pedal over the fixed casters to go through the bolt hole. The bolt is a few inches long and has threads only at the very tip -- I can "screw in" the bolt into the bolt hole up to the end of the threads, but after that it looks like the bolt gets a smidgen wider and just will not go through that bolt hole.
This is the case with both bolts and both wheel mounts.
Anyone else have this problem? I'm thinking about whipping out the drill and widening that hole a little bit, but want to be sure I'm not overlooking anything before I do so.
