WARNING:
If inner flange bushing has been removed, replace it
before placing blade on spindle. Failure to do so will
prevent blade from tightening properly and could result
in serious personal injury.
Fit the saw blade inside the lower blade guard and onto
the spindle.
Replace "D" washer.
Replace spring washer with cupped side against "D"
washer.
Depress spindle lock button and replace blade screw.
Tighten blade screw securely by turning it clockwise with
the blade wrench.
NOTE: Never use a blade that is too thick to allow the
"D" washer to engage with the flat on the spindle.
DANGER:
Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade.
Keep your second hand on auxiliary handle, or motor
housing. If both hands are holding the saw, they cannot
be cut by the blade.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with this product to make you
careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second
is sufficient to inflict serious injury.
