WARNING: A 5-1/2 in. blade is the maximum blade
capacity of the 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 con-
tact with the blade guard, while thicker blades will
prevent blade screw from securing blade on spindle.
Either of these situations could result in a serious ac-
cident.
