A few years ago I installed a Biesemeyer on my Delta Contractor's Saw. Recently I got a PM 66(green) at an auction. I would like to install the Bies on the PM. I called Delta and was told a hesitant "it should." I would like to know if anyone has done anything like this? And by the way when I ordered the fence on the first go round, I did say it was for a contractor's saw.
Thanks
Paul

I would call Jet (they make Powermatic now) and see if they have a fence for it. The new PM's come with a Biesemeyer knock off that works just as well IMHO. It may be less expensive than the Biesemeyer

You should be able to install it -- there are a series of holes on the Biesemeyer rails that should match closely to the holes on your saw. If not, you should be able to drill the holes in the rail to match.

It should fit without any problem. I just installed a Unifence on a PM66 & the holes lined up perfect.

It should fit, PM used to offer the 66 with a bies as standard eq.

My 1988 PM 66 (gold) came with a 50" Biesemeyer fence, also gold color. Don't know if that helps

The 50" Biesmeyer I have on my Grizzly 1023SL was on my old Craftsman before that. There's pretty universal by design.

If you are installing the recent "Lowes Special," you need to redrill the holes. (per the Delta representative)
