WARNING: To prevent accidental
starting that could cause possible
serious personal injury, assemble all
parts to your saw before connecting it
to the power supply. The saw should
never be connected to power supply
when you are assembling parts, making
adjustments, installing or removing
blades, or when not in use.
As mentioned previously your saw has been factory
assembled and adjusted. The dust bag, vice,
material supports and the mitre table lock handle are
the only parts that have to be installed.
■ REPLACING BLADE
DANGER: A 254mm x 1.8mm diameter
blade is the maximum blade capacity of
your 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 screw from securing the
blade on the spindle. Either of these
situations will result in a serious accident
and can cause serious personal injury.
Remove the two lower guard arm screws and raise
the lower guard. (Fig 9)
