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 itto 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.
