Yes. I've had mine for decades. I got it to saw duck decoy blanks and
needed the increased height. I'm running a 3/4 horse motor, and Iturra
suggests that I put in a 1 1/2 HP. (I haven't found one cheap enough
yet.)
I also suggest you get the Iturra catalog and booklet. (No connection
etc.) It's full of goodies to enhance your saw.

Hello Marc,
I have a Grizzly G0555, with the raiser kit. I had to make a few
adjustments after installing the kit and the new, longer blade, but
they're the same adjustments I would make when I make any blade
replacement. Took a few minutes in addition to the time spent installing
the raiser block.
