Installing &

Tensioning Blade

These instructions are hazardous if done while the machine is connect- ed to power. Disconnect power during this entire procedure!

Blade installation can be done by one person but is easiest if done with two people.

To install and tension the blade:

1.Put on safety glasses and heavy leather gloves.

2.Open the wheel cover to gain access to the wheels.

3.Hold the blade from each side, and position it in front of the wheels so the blade teeth are facing the front of the machine.

4.Carefully fit the blade over each wheel, and position it between the blade guides as shown in Figure 13. Make sure the teeth point toward the right-hand side of the machine, as you are facing the front.
