Replacing The Blade; Adjustments - Ryobi RTS22 Manuel D'utilisation

WARNING:
Before performing any adjustment, make sure the tool
is unplugged from the power supply and the switch is in
the OFF ( O ) position. Failure to heed this warning could
result in serious personal injury.
To avoid unnecessary set-ups and adjustments, a good
practice is to check your setups carefully with a framing
square and make practice cuts in scrap wood before making
finish cuts in good workpieces. Do not start any adjustments
until you have checked with a square and made test cuts to
be sure adjustments are needed.

REPLACING THE BLADE
