ASSEMBLY GUIDE
Figure 9 blade tool
To install a blade, position the blade change tool so that the two identical prongs are inserted
between the two discs of the drum, as seen in Figure 10. Raise the arm so that the pin of the
tool inserts into the slot on the upper disc. Pivot the tool up until there is sufficient clearance,
install the blade, and let the tool arm down. Be sure to install the blade so that its angled
edges are sloped downward. Once installed, be sure the blade is on the pin and swings freely.
Note that the drum unit may need to be raised to provide enough clearance to properly angle
the tool.
For safety purposes, never place your hand or fingers inside the opened space between the
discs.
