7. Place the blade on the blade shaft, lining up the drive pin hole in the
blade with the drive pinhole in the inside collar. NOTE: Diamond
blades are direction dependent so verify the direction of rotation of the
blade. The machine will rotate the blade into the work surface (down
cut).

on the outside collar must project through the drive pin hole in the
blade and into the inside collar.
