5. If alignment is necessary, loosen the two screws
(F) Fig. 27, align bracket (D) with the arbor flange (E), and
tighten screws (F).
6. Loosely assemble large washer and bolt (C) Fig. 27, to
the inside splitter bracket. This bolt and washer was
removed in STEP 3.
7. Assemble the blade guard and splitter assembly (G)
Fig. 28 between the large washer (C) and the splitter
bracket and tighten bolt (H) with wrench supplied.
8. Fasten the rear of the blade guard and splitter bracket
assembly (G) Fig. 29, to the rear splitter mounting
bracket using 5/16-18 x 5/8" carriage bolt (J), flat
washer, and 5/16-18 hex nut. Insert carriage bolt
through splitter and mounting bracket, followed by the
flat washer, then the hex nut. IMPORTANT: The splitter
(G) Fig. 29, has a notch (L) cut in the top edge. This
feature will enable the blade guard to stay in the raised
position to make blade changing a little easier. Raise the
front of blade guard (M) Fig. 30, until the rear edge of the
blade guard slips into notch (L) of splitter (G); the blade
guard will stay in this position.
