INSTALLING A SAW BLADE
1. Lock the saw attachment shaft in place.
in order to lock the shaft in place, rotate
the screw that holds the blade onto the
shaft until the hole in the shaft is aligned
with the hole in the saw attachment body
(1) (Fig. 16). Insert the L-Key (2) through
the holes in order to lock the shaft in place.
NOTE:
Do not attempt to loosen or tighten
the blade screw without locking the shaft
as described above. Doing so will damage
the flexible shaft.
2. Remove the saw blade screw (1), the
locking washer (2), and the large washer
(3) by turning the screw clockwise using a
5/16" (8 mm) wrench (Fig. 16A). The screw
has a left-hand thread.
3. Rotate the blade guard lever (4)
forward.
4. Place the saw blade onto the spindle
(5).
NOTE:
Verify that the teeth on the bottom
of the saw blade are pointing forward.
5. Secure the saw blade in position by
replacing the large washer, the locking
washer, and the saw blade screw in the
proper order.
NOTES:
a) Place the hollow side of the large
washer against saw blade.
b) Lock the saw blade shaft using the
L-Key.
c) Tighten the saw blade screw by turning
it counter-clockwise. The screw has a left-
hand thread.
d) Do not overtighten the saw blade screw.
Doing so will damage the threaded
spindle.
