8. Install the blade.
WARNING: Turn the power switch "OFF" and
unplug the power cord from its power source
when changing the saw blade.
WARNING: When replacing blades, check the
thickness stamped onto the riving knife. You
must select a blade with a kerf width larger
than the thickness of the riving knife. Thinner
blades may cause the workpiece to bind dur-
ing cutting.
WARNING: USE ONLY 10" diameter blades
with 5/8" arbor holes, rated at or higher than
3800 rpm.
a) Remove blade guard assembly & table insert.
b) Raise the arbor all the way up and set the
blade angle at 0º.
c) Remove the arbor
nut and arbor flange
from the arbor, slide
on the included 10"
saw
blade,
making
sure the teeth face
the front of the saw, then install the arbor
flange and arbor nut onto the blade.
d) Put on a pair of heavy leather gloves and
use the included arbor wrenches to tighten the
arbor nut (turn clockwise to tighten) as shown
in figure 8.
