CHECKING SAW BLADE INSTALLATION
See Figure 16.
NOTICE:
To work properly, the saw blade teeth must point down
toward the front of the saw. Failure to heed this warning
could cause damage to the saw blade, the saw, or the
workpiece.
Unplug the saw.
Lower the saw blade and remove the throat plate.
Make sure the bevel locking lever is securely pushed
to the left (see figure 29). Raise the saw blade to its full
height by turning the height/bevel adjusting handwheel
clockwise.
Place riving knife in the "up" position.
To loosen the blade:
Remove the blade wrenches from the blade wrench
storage area.
Using blade wrenches, place the flat open end of a blade
wrench on the flats on the arbor shaft.
Insert the closed end of the blade wrench over the blade
nut. Holding both wrenches firmly, pull the wrench (right
side) forward to the front of the machine.
To tighten the blade:
Using the blade wrench, place the flat open end into the
flats on the arbor shaft.
Insert the closed end of the blade wrench over the blade
nut. Holding both wrenches firmly, push the wrench (right
side) to the back of the machine. Make sure the blade
nut is securely tightened. Do not overtighten.
Reinstall the throat plate.
Check all clearances for free blade rotation.
