Replacing Blades

The teeth of saw blades are sharp and can easily cut fingers and hands. Always wear heavy leath- er gloves when handling saw blades.

The Model G0641 comes with two high-quality 12", 120-tooth blades. For best cutting results, select replacement blades that are designed for miter cuts and are of high quality.

To replace the saw blades:

1.DISCONNECT SAW FROM POWER!

2.Raise the front guard up, and remove the inner blade guard to access the blade arm assemblies and motors (see Figure 20).

3.Use a 14mm wrench on the inner arbor nut (see Figure 35) and a 19mm wrench on the arbor bolt to remove the arbor bolt, arbor flange, and saw blade.

Note: The left saw blade has a left-hand arbor bolt—to remove it, turn it clockwise. The right saw blade has a normally threaded arbor bolt and is removed by turning it coun- terclockwise.

4.Install the new blade on the arbor so that the teeth are pointing forward.

5.Secure the blade with the arbor flange and bolt.

Note: The arbor flange MUST be installed to ensure the blade is safely secured.

6.Reinstall the inner blade guard and secure the front guard in the lower position.
