OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: The maximum blade capacity of
your saw is 7-1/4 inches. Any blade larger than
7-1/4 inch will come in contact with the blade
guards. Never use a blade that is so thick that it
prevents the outer blade washer from engag-
ing with the flat side of the spindle. Blades that
are too large or too thick can result in an ac-
cident causing serious injury.
