Operation
MOUNTING AND DISMOUNTING THE SAW BLADE:
CAUTION: TO AVOID SERIOUS ACCIDENT, ENSURE THE SWITCH IS IN
THE OFF POSITION, AND THE POWER SOURCE IS DISCON-
NECTED.
1. Dismounting the saw blade (Fig. 10): To replace the saw blade, push the lock
lever, then loosen the hexagonal bolt with the wrench. The blade comes off
easily.
2. Mounting the saw blade:
a.
Thoroughly remove any sawdust which has accumulated on the spindle,
bolt and washers.
b. For mounting saw blade, the concave sides of both washers (A) and (B)
must be fitted to the saw blade sides. Mount the saw blade on the spindle,
and finally affix washer (B). (See Fig. 11)
c. To assure proper rotation direction of the saw blade, the arrow direction on
the saw blade must coincide with the arrow direction on the saw cover.
d. Using the fingers tighten the hexagonal bolt retaining the saw blade as
much as possible. Then depress the lock lever, lock the spindle, and
thoroughly tighten the bolt.
e. Confirm that the lock lever is in the original position.
