Delta 12" Radial Arm Saw arbor question

Ken

>Hi,

I recently bought a used 12" radial arm saw but it has a 5/8" arbor. I can't seem to find any 12" blades out there with a 5/8" arbor hole. I was wondering if anyone could help me with this problem. Is there an adapter that fits on a 5/8" arbor to increase it to 1" arbor? Is this safe to do in the first place?

Thanks.

Ken
