Porta-band 525 worm gear

[leekae]

just purchased a used porta-band 525 band saw type 3 with a stripped worm gear. Can the worm and gear be changed through the oil fill plug opening? If not where do I begin?

Hi leekae,

I am not having much luck finding info about a model #525 bandsaw. The model #725 and #7724 where both popular models. Double check the model number if you would so I can give accurate information.

Thanks!

My mistake, it is a 725 model type 3
