1980s Powermatic 66 - how to remove splitter support shaft?

[Len Rosenberg]

Can anyone tell me how to remove the splitter support shaft that sticks out the back of a late 1980s Powermatic 66 table saw? I thought it would unscrew but it just turns in place.

Thanks.

Figured it out. Had to tilt the trunion and loosen a set screw. Nearly impossible to get a wrench in there.

Hi Len,
Do you still have the splitter support shaft and splitter support? I have been looking for one to purchase, thank you.

Hi Jeff. I reinstalled the splitter when I changed from an Excalibur dust shroud to a Shark Guard (amazing improvement), so sorry to say, not for sale. Good luck in your search.
