9.IMPORTANT: The splitter (P) Fig. 19, features a notch (W) cut into the top edge. Raise the front of the clear blade guard (G) Fig. 19, until the rear edge of the guard slips into notch (W) of the splitter. This notch enables the blade guard to stay in the raised position and makes changing blades easier.
10.Reassemble the saw blade, making certain the teeth are pointing down at the front of the saw table as shown in Fig. 20, and assemble the outside blade flange and arbor nut (X). With an 8mm hex wrench (Y) inserted in the hex hole in the arbor to keep it from turning, tighten arbor nut by turning box end wrench (Z) to the rear of the saw.
11.Using a straight edge (A) Fig. 21, make certain the splitter (P) is aligned with the saw blade (B). Using a square (C) Figs. 22 and 23, make certain saw blade (B) Fig. 22, and splitter (P) Fig. 23, are 90 degrees to the table surface. Once you are certain the splitter is aligned to the saw blade and table, tighten all splitter mounting hardware and recheck alignment.
