BLADE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (Fig. 10-12)
Pin-end blades are thicker for stability and for
faster assembly. They provide faster cutting on a
variety of materials.

Loosen the blade tension by pushing the blade
tension knob (1) up.
To remove a blade:
Lift the saw blade (2) out by pulling forward on

holder (3) and lower blade holder (4). Slight
downward pressure against the upper arm (5) may
be helpful when removing blade from upper blade
holder.
Install a blade:
• Place the new blade through the opening in the
table insert (6) with the teeth to the front of the
saw and pointing down toward the work table.
