TO CHECK SAW BLADE INSTALLATION
See Figure 10.
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.
 Raise the saw blade to its full height by turning the height/
bevel adjusting handwheel clockwise.
 Make sure the bevel locking lever is securely pushed to
the right.
 Place riving knife in "up" position.
To loosen the blade:
 Using the open end blade wrench, place the flat open
end on the flats on the arbor shaft.
 Insert the closed end blade wrench over the blade nut.
Holding both wrenches firmly, pull the closed end wrench
forward to the front of the machine.
NOTE: Arbor shaft has right-hand threads.
To tighten the blade:
 Using the open end blade wrench, place the flat open
end into the flats on the arbor shaft.
 Insert the closed end blade wrench over the blade nut.
Holding both wrenches firmly, push the closed end wrench
to the back of the machine. Make sure the blade nut is
securely tightened. Do not overtighten.
NOTE: Arbor shaft has right-hand threads.
 Reinstall the throat plate.
 Check all clearances for free blade rotation.
TO INSTALL THE BLADE GUARD AND ANTI-
KICKBACK PAWLS
See Figures 11 - 13.
WARNING:
Always install the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls
onto the riving knife in the "up" position to provide proper
blade coverage. Installing the guarding components onto
the riving knife in any other position will prevent them
from working as designed, which could increase the risk
of serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Replace dull or damaged anti-kickback pawls. Dull or
damaged pawls may not stop a kickback increasing the
risk of serious personal injury.
ASSEMBLY
Anti-kickback pawls should only be installed for through
cuts.
 Unplug the saw.
 Raise the saw blade by turning the height/bevel adjusting
handwheel clockwise.
 Place riving knife in "up" position.
 Reinstall the throat plate.
To install blade guard:
 Lift the guard lever up to unlock.
 With the front of the blade guard raised and the guard
lever unlocked, lower the back of the guard into the middle
slot of the riving knife. Push the front of the guard down
until it is parallel to the table (see figure 13). If the blade
guard is not parallel to the table, the riving knife is not in
the "up" position.
 Lock the guard in place by pushing the guard lever down.
NOTE: Blade alignment can be adjusted for different blade
widths. Refer to: To Check and Align the Riving Knife and
