Replacing Pawls
Make sure the teeth of the pawls are always
sharp. If they become dull the pawls must be
replaced:
1. Use 7/16" wrench to remove hex nut.
Remove old pawls.
2. Install new pawls. Place spacers exactly
as shown.
3. Re-install hex nut.
4. Check that pawls work freely.
Blade Changing
To change the saw blade:
1. Turn switch off, remove yellow key, and
unplug saw.
2. Remove guard.
3. Use both blade wrenches in scissor
action to loosen blade nut. Note: Arbor shaft
has left-hand threads. Turn nut clockwise to
loosen.
4. Remove nut, blade collar, and blade.
Install new blade, making sure that teeth
point down towards the front of the table.
5. Re-install blade collar and nut. Note:
Do
not overtighten nut because this can cause blade col-
lar to warp and blade to wobble during cutting.
6. Re-install guard.
Lubricating Blade Guard Assembly
If guard becomes difficult to raise:
1. Clean sawdust from the slot and slider.
2. Regrease with a small amount of light
grease applied to the slot and slider. Also
add a thin coat of grease between the Trig-
ger and the Pull Link.
Adjusting the Trigger
If the Trigger becomes loose side-to-side,
adjust the setscrews at the top of the Yoke
Handle. Use a 1/8" hex wrench to tighten
setscrews tight. Then back off one setscrew
until the Trigger moves freely.
