ASSEMBLY
TO CHECK SAW BLADE INSTALLATION
See Figure 12.
NOTICE:
To work properly, the saw blade teeth must point down
toward the front of the saw. Failure to heed this warning
could cause damage to the saw blade, the saw, or the
workpiece.
Unplug the saw.
Lower the saw blade and remove the throat plate.
Make sure the bevel locking lever is securely pushed to
the right. Raise the saw blade to its full height by turning
the height/bevel adjusting handwheel clockwise.
Place riving knife in “up” position.
To loosen the blade:
Using the open end blade wrench, place the flat open
end on the flats on the arbor shaft.
Insert the closed end blade wrench over the blade nut.
Holding both wrenches firmly, pull the closed end wrench
forward to the front of the machine.
To tighten the blade:
Using the open end blade wrench, place the flat open
end into the flats on the arbor shaft.
Insert the closed end blade wrench over the blade nut.
Holding both wrenches firmly, push the closed end wrench
to the back of the machine. Make sure the blade nut is
securely tightened. Do not overtighten.
Reinstall the throat plate.
Check all clearances for free blade rotation.
TO INSTALL THE BLADE GUARD AND ANTI-
KICKBACK PAWLS
See Figures 13 - 15.
WARNING:
Always install the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls
onto the riving knife in the “up” position to provide proper
blade coverage. Installing the guarding components onto
the riving knife in any other position will prevent them
from working as designed, which could increase the risk
of serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Replace dull or damaged anti-kickback pawls. Dull or
damaged pawls may not stop a kickback increasing the
risk of serious personal injury.

of the guard into the middle hole of the riving knife. Push
the front of the guard down until it is
parallel to the table
(see figure 15).
If the blade guard is not parallel to the
table, the riving knife is not in the “up” position.
Lock the guard in place by pushing the guard lever down.
NOTE:
Blade alignment can be adjusted for different blade
widths. Refer to:
To Check and Align the Riving Knife and
Saw Blade

and free movement.
