Changing Main

Blade

The Model G0451 will perform best when high quality, sharp blades are used. Therefore, when- ever the main blade starts to get dull, we recom- mend that you have it resharpened or replace it with a new blade.

Also, the Model G0451 is designed to accom- modate either a 12" or a 14" main blade. Any time you change blade size, adjust the riving knife to 3mm away from the blade you install.

To change the main blade:

1.Disconnect the saw from the power source!

2.Move the blade tilt to 0˚ (blade 90˚ to table) and raise the main blade as far as it will go.

3.Move the sliding table all the way forward to expose the internal blade guard that cov- ers the blades and riving knife, as shown in Figure 55.

Figure 55. Internal blade guard exposed.

4.Pull the blade guard away from the blades to expose the mounting assembly. (The internal blade guard is held in place with a magnet.)

5.Use the arbor wrench to remove the arbor nut and arbor flange and pull the old blade off the arbor.

Note—The arbor nut has left hand threads and loosens by turning clockwise.

6.Slide the new blade over the arbor with the teeth facing the front of the saw as shown in Figure 56.

7.Re-install the arbor flange and the arbor nut and tighten them against the blade as shown in Figure 56.

Note—Wear gloves to protect your hands when installing or removing blades.

—If you changed the diameter of the blade during this procedure, adjust the riving knife according to the instructions titled Riving Knife Adjustment on Page 36.

8.Move the orange blade guard back into its original position, next to the blades, and cen- ter the sliding table.
