Removal and Installation of Wheels
(Fig. A, G)

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit
off and disconnect machine from power source
before installing and removing accessories, before
adjusting or changing set-ups or when making
repairs. Be sure the trigger switch is in the OFF position.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.
The Quick-Change blade clamp requires no tools to change
the blade.
1. Push in wheel lock lever 12
until wheel lock lever engages slot in inside flange
lock wheel. Loosen the Quick-Change blade clamp
counterclockwise. Clamp has right-hand thread.
2. Remove the Quick-Change blade clamp
washer 27 and old wheel
3. Make sure flange surfaces are clean and flat. Install the new
abrasive wheel by reversing the above steps.
4. Tighten the Quick-Change blade clamp clockwise until the
knob clicks as least three times to ensure the knob is tight.
The Quick-Change blade clamp cannot be overtightened.
nOTE: Do not overtighten bolt. An extra blade bolt
blade bolt washer 16 are stored on the back of the motor
arm. The bolt and washer must be used together to safely
clamp blade.

WARNING: Risk of personal injury. Check the work surface
that the chop saw rests on when replacing with a new
abrasive wheel. It is possible that the wheel may contact
ANY ITEMS OR STRUCTURE THAT EXTENDS ABOVE work
surface (under the base) when the arm is fully lowered.
Mounting (Fig. H, I)

CAUTION: Tool must be supported on stable, level,
non-skid surface to prevent unexpected movement
when operating.
Procedure For Permanent Mounting
1. Drill four holes 8 mm through the work surface (Fig. H).
2. Insert 1/4–20 screws down through the holes in the base
and through holes in mounting surface. The approximate
length of the screws should be the thickness of the
mounting surface plus 102 mm.

Cradle Mounting

1. Cut two boards approximately 508 x 50.8 x 101.6 mm wide.
2. Place chop saw at desired work location.
3. Place boards tightly along side, and nail to work surface
(Fig. I).
Operation Tips for More Accurate Cuts
• Allow the wheel to do the cutting. Excessive force will cause
the wheel to glaze reducing cutting efficiency and/or to
deflect causing inaccurate cuts.
• Properly adjust fence angle.
• Make sure material is laying flat across base.
• Properly clamp material to avoid movement and vibration.
