TO INSTALL/REPLACE THE BLADE
See Figures 14 - 15.
The blade is shipped installed on this miter saw model. In-
structions have been included for reference when changing
or replacing blades.
WARNING:
A 7-1/4 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 se-
curing the blade on the spindle. Either of these situations
could result in a serious accident and can cause serious
personal injury.
 Remove the battery.
 Raise the saw arm.
 Rotate lower blade guard up and back to expose the
blade bolt.
 Depress the spindle lock button and rotate the blade bolt
until the spindle locks.
 Using the blade wrench provided, 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.
NOTE: The inner blade washer is integrated into the
spindle and cannot be removed.
 Wipe a drop of oil onto inner blade washer and outer
blade washer where they contact the blade.
 Fit saw blade inside lower blade guard and onto spindle.
The blade teeth point downward at the front of saw as
shown in figure 15.
 Replace the outer blade washer. Double "D" flats on blade
washers align with flats on spindle.
 Depress spindle lock button and replace blade bolt.
NOTE: The blade bolt has left hand threads. Turn blade bolt
counterclockwise to tighten.
CAUTION:
Always install the blade with the blade teeth and the arrow
printed on the side of the blade pointing down at the front
of the saw. The direction of blade rotation is also stamped
with an arrow on the upper blade guard.
 Tighten blade bolt securely.
 Lower the blade guard.
 Raise and lower the saw arm to ensure upper blade guard
functions correctly.
