INSTALLING BLADE AND BLADE GUARD

See Figures 26,4 - 26C.

•Collect the blade and hardware that were removed earlier. Place the inner blade washer, saw blade, outer blade washer, and blade nut on the blade arbor. See Figure 26,4. Note: The concave side of blade washers go against the blade.

•Hold the blade arbor with one wrench and rotate the other blade wrench counterclockwise (up), to tighten the blade nut. See Figure 26B. Note: Blade arbor has left hand threads. Test the blade to make sure it turns freely.

•Use the bevel index knob (above the handle) and the bevel lock lever (below the handle) to set and lock the motor at 0". The blade will be vertical.

•Attach the blade guard over the blade so the riving knife and pawls face front. See Figure 26,4.

•Tilt the guard approximately 45" down in the front, place it over the blade, and rotate it to a horizontal locked position.

•Retighten the blade guard clamp screw, the long thumbscrew located between the blade guard and the motor.

•Check that the guard is firmly seated in the groove on the motor housing.

•Tighten the guard clamp screw.

•Replace the retaining screw and nut at the bottom of the lower inner blade guard. See Figure 26C.
