Makita 2703 Saw User Manual


 
The tool is shipped from the factory with the saw blade
and blade guard not in the installed condition. Assemble
as follows:
CAUTION:
Always unplug the tool before assembly.
Installing saw blade
Remove the table insert on the table. Hold the outer
flange with the offset wrench and loosen the hex nut
counterclockwise with the wrench. Then remove the
outer flange.
Assemble the inner flange, blade, outer flange and hex
nut onto the arbor, making sure that the teeth of the
blade are pointing down at the front of the table. Always
install the hex nut with its recessed side facing the outer
flange.
CAUTION:
Keep the flange surface clean of dirt or other adhering
matter; it could cause blade slippage. Be sure that the
blade is installed so that the teeth are aligned in the cut-
ting (turning) direction.
To secure the blade in place, hold the outer flange with
the offset wrench, then tighten the hex nut clockwise
with the wrench. BE SURE TO TIGHTEN THE HEX
NUT SECURELY.
CAUTION:
Be sure to hold the hex nut carefully with the wrench.
If your grip should slip, the wrench may come off the
hex nut, and your hand could strike the sharp blade
edges.
