ADJUSTING CLEARANCE
When you install or remove a blade, or adjust tensioning or tracking, make
sure you leave enough clearance between the blade and both upper and lower
bearing assemblies. This clearance protects the blade. To move the upper and
lower bearing assemblies, follow these steps:
Start by moving the upper blade guides away from the blade. See Figure 27.
1. Loosen the two ALLEN BOLTS (A) with the 5 mm Allen key provided.
2. Slide the two blade guides along the elongated hole in the MOUNTING
BRACKET (B) , as far away as possible from the blade.
3. Tighten the two ALLEN BOLTS (A) to lock the blade guides in position.
Next reposition the upper thrust bearing.
1. Loosen the UPPER THUMB SCREW (C) . See Figure 27.
2. Use the MICRO ADJUST NUT (D) to move the UPPER THRUST BEARING
(E) back. Ensure the bearing is behind the blade as far as possible. See
Figure 28.
Move the lower blade guides and thrust bearing away from the blade. See
Figure 29.
1. Loosen the two ALLEN BOLTS (A) with the 5 mm Allen key provided.
2. Slide the two blade guides along the elongated hole in the MOUNTING BRACKET (B) , as far
away as possible from the blade.
3. Tighten the two ALLEN BOLTS (A) to lock the blade guides in position.
4. Loosen the SET SCREW (F) with the 3 mm Allen key provided.
5. Manually move the LOWER THRUST BEARING (E) back as far as possible behind the blade.
BLADE REMOVAL
This saw is equipped with a BLADE TENSION QUICK-RELEASE LEVER (G) . See Figure 30.
To release tension, pull the lever to its vertical position (90º to the left). To add tension, return
the lever to its horizontal position (0º degrees). Never force the lever beyond its vertical or
horizontal positions.
To remove a blade, first check start by releasing tension.
1. Pull the TENSION LEVER (G) toward the left to release tension on the blade. You may
need to also turn the TENSION KNOB (H) counter-clockwise to release enough tension to
remove the blade. CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE.
