To avoid injury, do not use a blade larger or

through the holes and tighten (Figure 14).
To avoid injury from a thrown workpiece, blade
part, or blade contact, never operate the saw
without the proper insert in place. Use the table insert when
sawing. Use the dado insert when using a dado blade.
Using Carbide-Tipped Blades
Handle carbide-tipped blades carefully. Carbide
is very brittle and can be easily damaged. Use
caution when you install, use or store the blades. Do not use a
carbide-tipped blade that is bent or has bent teeth, or if the blade
has cracks, is broken, or has missing/loose carbide tips. Do not
operate a carbide-tipped blade faster than its recommended
speed.
Read, understand and follow all warnings and instructions
provided with your carbide-tipped blades.
