1. Before mounting any blade on the saw, the blade should be inspected for any
damage which might have occurred during shipment, handling or previous use.
2. The blade collars and arbors should be cleaned and examined for damage
before mounting the blade.
3. The blade must be properly fitted over the arbor with the drive pin on the
outside collar projecting through the drive pin hole on the blade and inside
collar.
4. The blade shaft nut, which is a left-hand thread nut, must be tightened securely
against the outside blade shaft collar.
5. The blade must be operated within the specified maximum operating speed
listed on the blade.
6. The blade guard must be in place with the nose guard down and locked when
the saw is running.

blade.
9. If for any reason the saw should stall in the cut, raise the blade out of the cut.
Check the outside blade shaft collar and nut for tightness. Inspect the blade
for damage before restarting the saw. Use caution when resuming a cut. Be
certain that the blade is in alignment with the previous cut.

a method of steering. Do not force the blade into the cut by lowering the blade
too fast or by pushing the saw too fast.
