Using Carbide-Tipped Blades; Attaching Rip Fence For Use - skilsaw SPT99 Instrucciones De Funcionamiento

4. While engaging the arbor lock lever, loosen
arbor nut counter clockwise (to the front of the
the saw table) with the wrench provided (Fig.
13).
5. Re move the arbor nut and outer washer.
6. Clean any sawdust from both blade washers
before installing the blade. Install a 10" (25.4
cm) blade onto the arbor with the blade teeth
pointing toward the front of the saw.
NOTE: The printing on different saw blades is
not always on the same side.
To avoid injury, do not use a blade larger or
smaller than 10" diameter and 5/8" arbor.
7. Install the flange against the blade and thread
the arbor nut as far as possible by hand. En-
sure that the blade is flush against the inner
blade flange (Fig. 14).
8. While lifting up arbor lock lever securely, tighten
the arbor nut clockwise (to the rear of the saw
table) with the wrench (Fig. 13).
9. Position the table insert in the pocket of table so
that the tabs on the table insert are in the slots
in the pocket of the table; push down on the
table insert and secure it in place.
To avoid injury from a thrown workpiece, blade
part, or blade contact, never operate the saw with-
out the proper insert in place. Use the table insert
when sawing. Use the dado insert when using a
dado blade.

USING CARBIDE-TIPPED BLADES

Handle carbide-tipped blades carefully. Carbide
is very brittle and can be easily damaged. Use
caution when you install, use or store the blades.
Do not use a carbide-tipped blade that is bent or
has bent teeth, or if the blade has cracks, is bro-
ken, or has missing/loose carbide tips. Do not
operate a carbide-tipped blade faster than its
recommended speed. When selecting a blade,
ensure it is rated above 5000 rpm.
Read, understand, and follow all warnings and
instructions provided with your carbide-tipped
blades.

ATTACHING RIP FENCE FOR USE

1. Ensure that the rip fence lock levers on both
sides of the fence are in the released position.
2. Align the notch on the rip fence bracket with the
bolt heads on the front and rear rails. Ensure
that the flip-over fence will be on the blade-side
of the main fence when in its use position. See
Fig. 15.
Assembly
3. Lower the fence onto the rails and secure the
lock levers on both sides of the fence.
4. Ensure that the rail lock paddle is in the locked
position prior to operating the saw.
