ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS
CHANGING THE SAW BLADE
1. Unplug your track saw. Turn the mode selector switch
to the blade changing setting (p. 13, Fig. 2).
2. Press and hold the plunge lock button (Fig. 16) and
plunge the saw downwards until the arbor screw is vis-
ible in the blade guard window. Release the plunge lock
button; the saw should now be locked in place and un-
able to be plunged or raised.
3. Press and hold the spindle lock (Fig. 16), then use
the included 5mm hex wrench to loosen the arbor screw
(turn it counterclockwise).
4. Remove the screw and outer flange (Fig. 17). Slide the
blade off the arbor and downwards until it is clear of the
blade guard.
5. Install the new blade on the arbor. Ensure that the
blade rotation direction is correct. Install the outer flange
and arbor screw. Press and hold the spindle lock button,
then use the hex wrench to tighten the arbor screw.
6. Press and hold the plunge lock button to release the
saw, then raise it.
DANGER!
Never try to use a blade larger than the stated capacity of the saw. Do not use a blade thicker than
1.9mm. It will prevent the blade screw from properly securing the blade on the arbor. Install the suitable blade
for your cutting operation. See page 2 and page 6 for specifications and saw blade safety.
DANGER!
Always wear gloves while handling blades
to prevent cuts and injuries.
