WARNING:
A 7-1/4 in. blade is the maximum blade capacity of the
saw. Also, never use a blade that is too thick to allow
outer blade washer to engage with the flat on the spindle.
Larger blades will come in contact with the blade guards,
while thicker blades will prevent blade screw from se-
curing blade on spindle. Either of these situations could
result in a serious accident.

INSTALLING/REMOVING BLADE
See Figures 1 - 3, page 15.
To install the blade:
Unplug the saw.
Depress and hold spindle lock.
Remove blade screw by turning it counterclockwise with
the blade wrench, while keeping the spindle lock button
depressed.
Remove spring washer and outer blade washer
("D" washer).
Wipe a drop of oil onto the inner flange bushing and outer
blade washer ("D") where they contact blade.
Retract the lower blade guard into the upper blade guard
using the lower blade guard handle. Make sure the lower
guard spring works properly, allowing the guard to move
freely.
Check to see that the saw teeth and arrow on the saw
blade and the arrow on the upper guard are pointing in
the same direction.
NOTE: The saw teeth point upward at the front of the saw
as shown.
Fit the saw blade inside the lower blade guard and onto
the spindle.
WARNING:
If inner flange bushing has been removed, replace it
before placing blade on spindle. Failure to do so will
prevent blade from tightening properly and could result
in serious personal injury.
Replace outer blade washer ("D" washer).
Replace spring washer with cupped side against "D"
washer.
