CHANGING A BLADE
DANGER!
Never try to use a blade larger than the stated capacity of the saw.
It might come into contact with the blade guards. Never use a blade that is too
thick to allow the outer blade washer to engage with the flats on the spindle. It
will prevent the blade screw from properly securing the blade on the spindle. Do
not use the saw to cut metal or masonry. Ensure that any spacers and spindle
rings that may be required suit the fitted spindle and blade.
1. Make sure that the power cord is removed from the power source.
2. Push down on the operating handle and pull the release knob (FIGURE 2) to
disengage the saw arm. The release knob can be turned so that it is held in the
retracted position.
3. Raise the saw arm to its highest position.
4. Using a screwdriver loosen and remove the screw that secures the guard
retraction arm to the rotating blade guard (FIGURE 18).
5. Using a hex key to loosen and remove the screw that secures the arbor bolt
cover (FIGURE 19).
6. Pull the rotating blade guard down then swing it up together with the arbor
bolt cover. When the rotating blade guard is positioned in the upwards position,
it is possible to access the arbor bolt (FIGURE 20).
7. Hold the rotating guard up and press the spindle lock button (FIGURE 7).
Rotate the blade until the spindle locks.
8. Use the hex key provided to loosen and remove the arbor bolt (loosen in a
clockwise direction as the blade screw has a left-handed thread)(FIGURE 20).
9. Remove the outer flange washer and the blade.
10. Wipe a drop of oil onto the inner flange and the outer flange where they
contact the blade.
11. Fit the new blade onto the spindle taking care that the inner flange sits
behind the blade.
