TO INSTALL / REPLACE THE BLADE
See Figures 17 - 18.
The blade is shipped installed on this miter saw model.
Instructions have been included for reference when
changing or replacing blades.
WARNING:
A 12 in. blade is the maximum blade capacity of the saw.
Never use a blade that is too thick to allow outer blade
washer to engage with the flats on the spindle. Larger
blades will come in contact with the blade guards, while
thicker blades will prevent the blade bolt from securing
the blade on the spindle. Either of these situations
could result in a serious accident and can cause serious
personal injury.
 Unplug the saw.
 Raise saw arm.
 Using the phillips screwdriver end of the blade wrench,
loosen, but do not remove, the blade bolt cover screw.
Rotate lower blade guard and blade bolt cover up and
back to expose the blade bolt.
 Depress the spindle lock button and rotate the blade bolt
until the spindle locks.
 Using the hex end of the blade wrench, loosen and
remove the blade bolt.
NOTE: The blade bolt has left hand threads. Turn blade
bolt clockwise to loosen.
 Remove the outer blade washer. Do not remove the inner
blade washer.
 Wipe a drop of oil onto inner blade washer and outer
blade washer where they contact the blade.
WARNING:
If inner blade washer has been removed, replace it before
placing blade on spindle. Failure to do so could cause an
accident since blade will not tighten properly.
 Fit saw blade inside lower blade guard and onto shoulder
of inner washer. The blade teeth point downward at the
front of saw as shown in figure 18.
 Replace the outer blade washer. The double "D" flats on
the blade washers align with the flats on the spindle.
 Depress spindle lock button and replace blade bolt.
NOTE: The blade bolt has left hand threads. Turn blade bolt
counterclockwise to tighten.
