ASSEMBLY

TO INSTALL BLADE

See Figures 13 - 16.

WARNING:

A 8-1/4 in. blade is the maximum blade capacity of the saw. Never use a blade that is too thick to allow outer blade washer to engage with the flats on the spindle. Larger blades will come in contact with the blade guards, while thicker blades will prevent the blade bolt from se- curing the blade on the spindle. Either of these situations could result in a serious accident and can cause serious personal injury.

nRemove the battery pack from the tool.

�n Push down on the saw arm and pull out the lock pin to release saw arm. Raise saw arm to its full raised position. Be cautious, saw arm is spring loaded to raise.

�n Loosen the phillips screw on the blade bolt cover until blade bolt cover can be raised. See Figure 13.

�n Gently raise the lower blade guard bracket, releasing lower blade guard from notch so that lower blade guard and blade bolt cover can be rotated up and back to expose the blade bolt. See Figure 14.

��n Depress the spindle lock button and rotate the blade bolt until the spindle locks. See Figure 16.
