Selecting Blade
Always use sharp blades. Dull blades tend to overload the tool and
increase the chance of KICKBACK (see page 8). Only use blades with a
maximum safe operating speed greater than the no load RPM marked on
the tool's nameplate. Read the blade manufacturer's instructions before
use.

2.
Place the saw on a flat surface with the blade facing upwards. To
remove the bolt from the spindle, push in the spindle lock button. While
holding the spindle lock button in, use the wrench provided with the
tool to turn the bolt counterclockwise (Fig. 2). Remove the bolt and
blade flange.
3.
Slide the lower guard lever up to raise the lower guard. Remove the
blade from the spindle. Always clean the spindle, upper guard and
lower guard to remove any dirt and sawdust.
