The clutch spring broke a while back on the saw. I waited a long time for the part to arrive from China. I attached itand there wasn't enough tension to advance the carriage. Either Tony or Roy suggested adding another spring. I had enough trouble installing the first one and decided to order a HP 14 and hire a handyman to fix the 10 along with some other stuff I am unable to do.
My 14 arrived this year and is still in the box. I needed to take down my Covington and clean up my work area in order to set it up. I bought some plastic storage boxes at Costco and today transferred oily tools into one box and oily rocks into another.
I then had an idea. The Covington uses an alligator clip to advance the carriage. The original clip wore out and I got a heavy duty replacement from Covington. I took the clip and put it on the feed thread of the HP behind the clutch...and the saw is cutting slabs.
