ASSEMBLY
TO INSTALL / REPLACE THE BLADE
See Figures 16 - 17.
WARNING:
A 10 in. blade is the maximum blade capacity of the saw.
Never use a blade that is too thick to allow outer blade
washer to engage with the flats on the spindle. Larger
blades will come in contact with the blade guards, while
thicker blades will prevent the blade bolt from secur
-
ing the blade on the spindle. Either of these situations
could result in a serious accident and can cause serious
personal injury.
Unplug the saw.
Once blade has stopped, raise saw arm.
Rotate lower blade guard up and remove screw. Rotate
blade bolt cover up and back to expose the blade bolt.
Depress the spindle lock button and rotate the blade bolt
until the spindle locks.
Using the wrench provided, loosen and remove the blade
bolt.
NOTE: The blade bolt has left hand threads. Turn blade
bolt clockwise to loosen.
Remove outer blade washer (or laser guide). Do not
remove inner blade washer.
Wipe a drop of oil onto inner blade washer (or laser guide)
and outer blade washer where they contact the blade.
WARNING:
If inner blade washer has been removed, replace it before
placing blade on spindle. Failure to do so could cause an
accident since blade will not tighten properly.
Fit saw blade inside lower blade guard and onto spindle.
The blade teeth point downward at the front of saw as
shown in figure 17.
Replace outer blade washer (or laser guide). Double “D”
flats on blade washers align with flats on spindle.
Depress spindle lock button and replace blade bolt.
NOTE: The blade bolt has left hand threads. Turn blade bolt
counterclockwise to tighten.
CAUTION:
Always install the blade with the blade teeth and the
arrow printed on the side of the blade pointing down at
the front of the saw. The direction of blade rotation is also
stamped with an arrow on the upper blade guard.
Tighten blade bolt securely.
Replace the lower blade guard and blade bolt cover.
Replace screw and tighten securely.
