WARNING: To prevent personal injury, ALWAYS disconnect the plug from
power source BEFORE assembling parts, making adjustments or changing
blades.
WARNING: Be sure to wear protective work gloves while handling a saw
blade. The blade can injure unprotected hands.
1. Raise the saw arm.
2. Use Phillips screwdriver, loosen but do not remove screw on the arbor
screw guard by turning counterclockwise.
3. Rotate arbor guard to expose the arbor.
4. Press and hold arbor lock button while loosening and removing the left-
hand-thread arbor screw by turning clockwise with the wrench included.
5. Lift and hold up the lower blade guard.
6. Remove the outer blade flange.
7. Remove blade from arbor. Wipe the flanges and arbor to remove dust and
debris.
8. Take the new blade and match the direction of the arrow on it with the
direction of the arrow on the upper blade guard. Make sure the blade teeth
are pointing downward. Install the blade by sliding the blade into the upper
blade guard and placing the blade up and onto the arbor.
Note: inner flange will already be on the arbor.
9. Replace the outer blade flange, making sure the flat side of the flange is
against the blade. Replace the arbor screw and tighten counterclockwise
with the supplied wrench while holding in the arbor lock button until lock
engages, then tightening the arbor screw securely.
10. Rotate the arbor guard into position and securely tighten its screw by
turning clockwise with the Phillips screwdriver.
11. Lower the saw arm and check the clearance between the blade and the
miter table. The blade should rotate freely.
CAUTION: ALWAYS make sure the spindle lock button is released so the
blade can rotate freely. MAKE SURE that the locking pin is loose and that the
saw head moves freely up and down. ENSURE that all clamps and locks are
tightly in place and that there is no excessive play in any parts.
