Abstract

A machine tool has a work table which defines a working surface and has a cutting tool which is attached to and movable with respect to the work table. The cutting tool extends through a removable throat plate. An integral arbor wrench is provided which is accessible when the throat plate is removed. The wrench is designed to engage the arbor shaft to facilitate tool changing by preventing rotation of the arbor shaft. The wrench is also designed to not allow reassembling of the throat plate when the wrench is in engagement with the arbor shaft.
