Installing Blade (Fig. H, I, J, K) Unplug the miter saw before changing/ installing the blade.

1.Install a 12 in. blade with a 5/8 in. arbor (or a 1 in. arbor with a 5/8 in. reducer), making sure the rotation arrow on the blade matches the clockwise rotation arrow on the upper guard and the blade teeth are pointing downward.

2.Place the blade collar (6) against the blade and on the arbor. Thread the arbor bolt (4) onto the arbor in a counter-clockwise direction. (Fig. K) IMPORTANT: Make sure the flats of the blade collars are engaged with the flats on the arbor shaft. Also, the flat-side of the collar must be placed against the blade.

3.Place the blade wrench on the arbor bolt.

4.Press the arbor lock (5), holding it in firmly while turning the blade counter-clockwise. When it engages, continue to press the arbor lock

in while tightening the arbor bolt securely. (Fig. J)

5.Rotate the cover plate (3) back to its original position until the slot in the cover plate engages with the cover plate screw (2). While holding the lower blade guard, tighten the screw with a star-head screwdriver. (Fig. H, I) NOTE: The lower blade guard must be raised to the upright position to access the cover plate screw.

6.Lower the blade guard (1), and verify that the operation of the guard does not bind or stick. (Fig. H)

7.Be sure the arbor lock is released so the blade turns freely.

!WARNING

To avoid injury, never use the saw without the cover plate secured in place.It keeps the arbor bolt from falling out if it accidentally loosens and helps prevent the spinning blade from coming off the saw.

Make sure the collars are clean and properly arranged. Lower the blade into the lower table, and check for any contact with the metal base or the miter table.

To avoid injury from an accidental start, make sure the switch is in the off position, and the plug is not connected to the power source.
