WARNING:
A 7-1/4 in. blade is the maximum blade capacity of
the saw. Also, never use a blade that is too thick to
allow outer blade washer to engage with the flat on the
spindle. Larger blades will come in contact with the blade
guards, while thicker blades will prevent blade screw from
securing blade on spindle. Either of these situations could
result in a serious accident.
NOTICE:
To prevent damage to the spindle or spindle lock, always
allow motor to come to a complete stop before engaging
spindle lock.
ATTACHING BLADE
See Figures 1 - 3, pages 16 - 17.
Unplug the saw.
Depress and hold spindle lock button.
Remove blade screw by turning it counterclockwise with
the blade wrench, while keeping the spindle lock button
depressed.
Remove spring washer and outer blade washer (“D”
washer).
Wipe a drop of oil onto the inner flange bushing and outer
blade washer (“D” washer) where they contact blade.
Retract the lower blade guard into the upper blade guard
using the lower blade guard handle. Make sure the lower
guard spring works properly, allowing the guard to move
freely.
Check to see that the saw teeth and arrow on the saw
blade and the arrow on the upper guard are pointing in
the same direction.
NOTE: The saw teeth point upward at the front of the saw
as shown.
