Install / Change the Blade
The standard blade included with the saw is a general-purpose starter blade. It is recommended
that blades be chosen and sourced from a reputable supplier based upon the specific materials
and type of cutting being performed.
1. Disconnect and lockout power to the saw!
2. Remove blade guard assembly & table insert.
3. Unlock the raise/lower handwheel lock and raise sawblade to maximum height.
4. Depress locking pin and slowly rotate blade toward you until pin engages into arbor. Hold
arbor in the locked position.
5. Place supplied open-end wrench (A) on the arbor nut (B). Turn wrench counterclockwise to
loosen nut. Remove arbor nut, blade flange (C) and saw blade (D).
6. Place new blade on arbor. Make sure saw blade teeth point down at the front side of saw
table. Place flange and nut on arbor and securely snug blade in position.
7. Replace the blade guard assembly & table insert.
WARNING:
Turn the power switch “OFF” and unplug the power cord
from its power source when changing the saw blade.
Blades are dangerously sharp. Use extreme caution when working with or around the
blade. Wear proper safety protection such as heavy gloves.
When replacing blades, check the thickness stamped onto the riving knife. You must
select a blade with a kerf width larger than the thickness of the riving knife. Thinner
blades may cause the workpiece to bind during cutting.
USE ONLY 10″diameter blades with 5⁄8″arbor holes, rated at or higher than 3800 rpm.
