unplugged before installing or removing the blade.

•
install or remove the blade. Failure to do so may
result in overtightening or insufficient tightening of
the hex bolt. This could cause an injury.

stopper pin.

When inner flange is removed mistakenly, be sure

to install it on the spindle with its protrusion facing

making sure that the direction of the arrow on the
surface of the blade matches the direction of the arrow
on the blade case.
Install the outer flange and hex bolt, and then use the
socket wrench to tighten the hex bolt (left-handed)
securely counterclockwise while pressing the shaft lock.
