5. Depress the spindle lock button (29). To ensure it
engages correctly, rotate the allen key (11) until the
spindle lock clicks into position (Fig. 26).
NOTE:
The spindle lock button (29) holds the blade (10) in
place when using the allen key (11) to change the blade (10).
6. Loosen the bolt in the centre of the blade (10) by turning the allen key (11) clockwise
as the blade bolt is a left hand thread.
7. Remove the blade bolt followed by the outer blade washer. The blade (10) can
now be removed by pulling away from the spindle. Put it aside ready to use in the
reassembly of the new blade.
8. The new blade can be fitted. Follow steps 2-7 in reverse to fit the new blade.
WARNING!
To ensure the correct blade rotation always install the blade with the
blade teeth pointing downwards. Ensure the arrow direction on the blade
corresponds with the arrow on the upper blade guard.
Setting the Table Square with the Blade
After replacing the blade or over time, the Mitre Saw angles may require adjusting so
that the 0° angles (both bevel and mitre) are actually located at exactly 0°.
1. Ensure the plug is disconnected from the power supply.
2. Push the cutting head (4) down to the lowest position
and engage the head locking pin (5) (Fig. 27). The Mitre
Saw should now be secured in the transport position.
3. Loosen the mitre table lock knob (25) by turning in an
anti-clockwise direction (Fig. 28).
