VARI-TORQUE CLUTCH
This clutching action is provided by the friction
of the OUTER WASHER against the BLADE and
permits the blade shaft to turn when the blade
encounters excessive resistance. When the BLADE
STUD is properly tightened (as described in No. 5
of Attaching The Blade), the blade will slip when
it encounters ex cessive resistance, thus reducing
saw's tendency to KICKBACK.
One setting may not be sufficient for cutting
all materials. If ex cessive blade slippage
occurs, tighten the blade stud one mark more.
