Changing the Blade
1. Ensure the plug is disconnected from the mains power supply.
2. Ensure the cutting head is raised. If the head
locking pin is locked in place, pull the head
locking pin and gently raise the cutting head.
3. Using a Phillips head screwdriver loosen and
remove the screw that secures the blade
bolt cover
4. Pull the lower guard down then swing it up
together with the blade bolt cover. When the
lower guard is positioned over the upper
guard , it is now possible to access the blade
bolt.
5. Insert the hex key provided into the blade
bolt in the centre of the blade
6. Depress the spindle lock button. To ensure it
engages correctly, rotate the hex key until the
spindle lock clicks into position.
NOTE:
The spindle lock button holds the blade in
place when using the hex key to change the blade.
7. Loosen the bolt in the centre of the blade by
turning the hex key clockwise as the blade bolt is
a left hand thread.
8. Remove the blade bolt and washer followed by the outer blade flange. The
blade can now be removed by pulling away from the spindle. Put it aside
ready to use in the reassembly of the new blade.
9. Fit the new blade onto the spindle taking care that the inner blade washer
sits behind the blade.
10. Depress the spindle lock and replace the out blade flange, flat washer and
blade bolt. Use the hex key to tighten the blade bolt securely (tighten in an
anti-clockwise direction).
11. Lower the upper guard, hold the lower guard and blade bolt cover in position
while you refit & tighten the fixing screw removed in step 3.
12. Check that the blade guard operates correctly and covers the blade as the
saw arm is lowered.

SPARE PARTS
WARNING!:
BEFORE CLEANING YOUR MITRE SAW
OR CARRYING OUT ANY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE,
MAKE SURE THAT THE MOTOR IS OFF AND THE TOOL
DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER SUPPLY TO PREVENT
ACCIDENTAL STARTING.
CAUTION!
NEVER TRY TO USE A BLADE THAT IS LARGER
THAN THE STATED CAPACITY OF THE MITRE SAW. IT MIGHT
COME INTO CONTACT WITH THE BLADE GUARDS AND RISK
PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE MITRE SAW. THIS
WILL NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY.
CAUTION!
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 ONTO THE
SPINDLE.
CAUTION!
ENSURE THAT ANY SPACERS AND SPINDLE
RINGS THAT MAY BE REQUIRED SUIT THE SPINDLE AND
BLADE THAT ARE FITTED.
WARNING!:
TO ENSURE THE CORRECT BLADE ROTATION
ALWAYS INSTALL THE BLADE WITH THE BLADE TEETH
POINTING DOWNWARDS. ENSURE THE ARROW DIRECTION
ON THE BLADE CORRESPONDS WITH THE ARROW ON THE
UPPER BLADE GUARD.

Carbon Brushes
When the carbon brushes wear out, the mitre saw will
spark and/or stop. Discontinue use as soon as this
happens. They should be replaced prior to recommencing
use of the mitre saw. Carbon brushes are a wearing
component of the mitre saw therefore not covered under
warranty. Continuing to use the mitre saw when carbon
brushes need to be replaced may cause permanent
damage to the mitre saw. Carbon brushes will wear out
after many uses but when the carbon brushes need to be replaced, take the
mitre saw to an electrician or a power tool repairer for a quick and low cost
replacement. Always replace both carbon brushes at the same time.
Note:
Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or
injuries caused by the repair of the mitre saw by an unauthorised
person or by mishandling of the mitre saw.
Sparking visible through the housing air vents
A small amount of sparking may be visible through the housing vents. This is
normal and does not indicate a problem.
