not assume that the printing on the blade will always be
facing you when properly installed. When retracting the
lower blade guard to install the blade, check the condition
and operation of the lower blade guard to assure that it is
working properly. Make sure it moves freely and does not
touch the blade or any other part, in all angles and depths
of cut.
3. Place outer clamp washer
beveled edge facing out. Make sure the 30 mm diameter on
the blade side of the clamp fits into the 30 mm hole in the
saw blade to ensure centring of the blade.

by hand (screw has right-hand threads and must be turned
clockwise to tighten).
5. Depress the blade lock 5 while turning the saw spindle

screw counterclockwise with the blade wrench (screw has
right-hand threads and must be turned counterclockwise
to loosen).
3. Remove the blade clamping screw
washer 23 . Remove old blade.
4. Clean any sawdust that may have accumulated in the
guard or clamp washer area and check the condition and
operation of the lower blade guard as previously outlined.
