Always disconnect power
to the machine when
changing blades. Failure
to do this may result in
serious personal injury.
All saw blades are dan-
gerous and may cause
personal injury. To reduce
the risk of being injured,
wear leather gloves when
handling saw blades.

NOTICE
When you change the blade or adjust the
tension and tracking, the spaces between
the guide and support bearings will change.
In these cases, you must adjust the upper
and lower guide and support bearings
before continuing with cutting operations
(Pages 26 & 29).
