The arbor screw has a LH thread. Turn clockwise to loosen.
Turn counterclockwise to tighten. Only use the Hex Key supplied
with this machine to loosen or tighten the arbor bolt. This Hex Key
provides the optimum torque (turning force) to ensure that the
blade is correctly fitted and tightened into the machine.
• Install the new ø210mm blade. Make sure the rotation arrow
on the blade matches the clockwise rotation arrow on the
upper guard.
Note:
The blade teeth should always point downward at the
front of the saw.
• Install the blade flange, washer and arbor screw.
• Lock the arbor and tighten the arbor screw using moderate
force, but do not overtighten.
Note:
The arbor lock button engages with a hole machined in
the machines arbor, preventing the arbor from turning. It does
not lock the lower blade guard into the upper blade guard.
• Replace the guard operating arm and its retaining pivot
screw.
(Fig. 37)
• Ensure the Hex Key is removed and the arbor lock has
released before operating.
• Ensure the blade guard is fully functional before using
the machine.
If required, Blade Bore Reducing Inserts should only be used in
accordance with the manufacturers instructions.
