SETTINGS AND ADJUSTMENTS

TO REMOVE THE BLADE

See Figures 25 - 27.

Use the two wrenches supplied with the saw in this proce- dure to replace the blade.

WARNING:

Unplug your saw and make sure the blade guard assembly is installed and working properly to avoid serious personal injury.

■Raise the blade guard.

■Remove the screw from the throat plate then remove the throat plate.

■Push the bevel locking lever to the left for elevation mode.

■Raise the blade to its full height by turning the blade adjusting handle clockwise.

■Place the open end of the small hex wrench into the slot beside the blade. The wrench will fit over two flats on the arbor (blade shaft). See Figure 26.

■Fit the large hex wrench onto the arbor nut. Turn clockwise and remove the nut, taking care not to drag your knuckles across the blade.

Note: The arbor nut has left-hand threads.

■Remove the outer blade washer from the arbor and then remove the blade. Make sure that inner blade washer and both spacers are tight against arbor shoulder.

■Replace with a new blade. Make sure the blade teeth are pointing forward, toward incoming work.

■Put the outer blade washer and arbor nut back on, aligning with the flats on the arbor. Tighten the nut with a counterclockwise turn.

Note: Use care not to cross thread arbor nut. Do not overtighten.

■Rotate the blade by hand to make sure it is turning freely.

■Check the riving knife and adjust if needed (See next procedure).

■Lower the blade, insert the throat plate, then securely tighten the throat plate screw.
