_NSTALUNG BLADE AND BLADE GUARD

See Figures 26A - 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 26A. 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 26A.

[] 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.
