1. Loosen the retaining screw and remove the table
insert plate, A.
2. Install a saw blade (not supplied with the saw) so
that the openings between the teeth face the front of
the saw
(
the blade spins in the counter-clockwise direction).
3. Replace the flange and arbor nut. Wedge a board
between the saw teeth at the back of the saw, B, so
the blade won’t turn as you tighten the nut clockwise
with the arbor wrench.
Remove a saw blade: wedge a block of wood between
the teeth in front of the saw and turn the arbor wrench
toward you, or counter-clockwise.
NOTE: This saw is intended for use with 10" (250mm) diameter or less
s
aw blades having a center hole diameter of 5/8". There are many
types of blades available to perform specific cutting jobs, such as
c
rosscuts or ripping only, or for use with plywood, panelling and
other products. A good quality specialty blade can produce a finer
f
inish, be more efficient and place less strain on the saw. Use only
saw blades designed for use at a maximum operating speed of 6000
RPM or less. Saw blades should be kept clean and sharp. Never store
s
aw blades by stacking them directly in contact with each other.
Place a layer of cardboard or similar material between the blades to
keep them from coming into contact with each other.

The bevel pointer should read “0” when the blade is at 90°

reset the pointer to 0 and re-tighten the screw.
SELECT A RIVING KNIFE
Two riving knives are provided:
- A combination riving style splitter and blade guard
with anti-kickback pawls A;
- A European style riving knife without blade guard
B.
The riving knife must always be used with a blade guard.
If you already own an independently attached blade-
guard such as our Excalibur 50-EXBC10, use the riving knife
B. If you do not already own a blade guard, use the split-
ter/blade guard assembly A.
THE BLADE MUST NEVER REMAIN EXPOSED WHEN USING THE SAW. TO PREVENT THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURIES, ALWAYS
COVER THE BLADE WITH A BLADE GUARD.
