Adjustments - Ryobi RTS31 Manual De Operación

WARNING:
Before performing any adjustment, make sure the tool is
unplugged from the power supply and the switch is in the
OFF position. Failure to heed this warning could result in
serious personal injury.
The table saw has been adjusted at the factory for making
very accurate cuts. However, some of the components might
have been jarred out of alignment during shipping. Also,
over a period of time, readjustment will probably become
necessary due to wear.
To avoid unnecessary set-ups and adjustments, a good prac-
tice is to check your setups carefully with a framing square
and make practice cuts in scrap wood before making finish
cuts in good workpieces. Do not start any adjustments until
you have checked with a square and made test cuts to be
sure adjustments are needed.
TO REPLACE THE BLADE
See Figures 53 - 55.
Blade kerf width must be within the limits stamped on the
riving knife.
 Unplug the saw.
 Remove the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls.
 Lower the saw blade and remove the throat plate.
 Make sure the bevel locking lever is locked.
 Raise the saw blade to full height.
 Insert the open end of the blade wrench onto the flats on
the arbor shaft.
 Insert the closed end of the blade wrench over the blade
nut. Holding both wrenches firmly, pull the outside wrench
(right side) forward while pushing the inside (left side) to
the back of the saw. Remove the blade nut and blade
washer.
 Unlock the release locking lever and remove the blade.
To install a standard blade:
 Place the new blade on the arbor shaft (the teeth must
point down toward the front of the saw to work properly).
 Place the blade washer and the blade nut over the arbor
shaft. Be sure the flat side of the blade washer faces
the blade and that all items are snug against the arbor
housing. Make sure the blade nut is securely tightened.
Do not overtighten.
 Lock the release lever.
 Rotate the blade by hand to make sure it turns freely.
 Lower the saw blade and reinstall the throat plate.
NOTE: To replace the blade with an accessory blade, follow
the instructions provided with the accessory.
