To install the blade:
1. DISCONNECT THE SAW FROM POWER!
2. Put on heavy leather gloves and raise the
arbor all the way up.
3. Remove the table insert and blade guard/riv-
ing knife, depending on what is installed.
4. Use the arbor wrenches to loosen and remove
the arbor nut, flange, and blade.
Note: The arbor nut has right hand threads;
turn it counterclockwise to loosen.
The saw blade is sharp. Use extra care or
wear gloves when handling the blade or
working near it.
6. Re-install the arbor flange and the arbor nut,
and tighten them against the blade with the
wrenches included with the saw. DO NOT
overtighten.
