Important: After replacing the blade, make sure the blade
runs freely by turning the saw head by hand.
Close the base and re-install the two screws.
Before using the machine again, check that the safety
devices are in good working order.
Plug the machine into a main socket outlet and run the
machine without actually cutting any work material. This is
