ATTACHING BLADE

See Figure 4.

WARNING: A 5-1/2 in. (140 mm) blade is the max- imum blade capacity of your saw. Never use a blade that is too thick to allow outer blade washer to en- gage with the flats on the spindle. Larger blades will come in contact with the blade guard, while thicker blades will prevent blade screw from securing blade on spindle. Either of these situations could result in a serious accident.

nRemove battery pack from saw.

nLocate latches on side of battery pack and depress to release battery pack from your saw.

nRemove blade wrench (6 mm hex key) from storage area.

NOTE: Turn blade screw clockwise to remove.

nWipe a drop of oil onto inner blade washer and outer blade washer where they contact blade.

WARNING: If inner blade washer has been re- moved, replace it before placing blade on spindle. Failure to do so could cause an accident since blade

will not tighten properly.

nFit saw blade inside lower blade guard and onto spindle.

NOTE: The saw teeth point upward at the front of saw as shown in figure 3.

nReplace outer blade washer.

nDepress spindle lock button, then replace blade screw. Tighten blade screw securely.
