Installing Saw Blade

The saw blade is extremely sharp. Use extra care when handling the blade or working near it. Serious injury is possible.

Please review this section even if your saw blade came pre-installed. To install the blade:

1.Disconnect the table saw from the power source.

2.Remove the table insert to gain access to the arbor.

3.Rotate the arbor nut counter-clockwise to remove.

4.Remove outer arbor flange from the arbor.

5.Place the blade on the arbor, making sure that it seats firmly against the inner arbor flange. Ensure that the top blade teeth are facing the front of the saw.

6.Replace the outer arbor flange and thread the arbor nut clockwise to tighten.

7.Hand tighten the nut and snug with the arbor wrench included with the saw. DO NOT over tighten.

IMPORTANT: Make sure the blade is installed with the teeth facing the front of the saw.

Table Insert

!Disconnect power to the table saw when perform- ing any maintenance,

assembly or adjust- ments. Failure to do this may result in serious personal injury.

The table insert provides support for materials being cut and access to the blade and arbor when removed.

1.Disconnect the table saw from the power source.

2.Using a 6mm hex wrench, adjust the setscrews (Figure 13) until they are firmly in contact with the table casting and the insert is flush with the table top.

3.Now make sure the blade will not come into contact with table insert. Position the blade at 90¡, then raise and lower the blade through its full range of motion. Also, rotate the blade while doing this, making sure that the blade never contacts any part of the table insert. Do the same with the blade in the 45¡ position. Wear leather gloves while rotating the blade to prevent being cut.

Figure 13. Setscrew on each corner of insert.
