REMOVING AND INSTALLING THE BLADE
Only use a 10 in. diameter blade. To avoid
injury from an accidental start, make sure the
switch is in the OFF position and the plug is not
connected to the power source outlet.
REMOVING THE BLADE
(FIG. 10, 11, 12)
● Unplug the saw from the outlet.
● Allow the miter saw cutting head to rise to
the upright position. Raise the lower blade
guard (1) to the up position.
● Loosen the cover plate screw (2) with a
Phillips screwdriver.
NOTE: Do not remove this screw.
● Rotate the cover plate (3) upward to expose
the arbor bolt (4).
● Place the blade wrench over the arbor bolt.
● Locate the arbor lock button (5) on the front
of motor, below the miter saw switch handle
(Fig. 12).
● Press the arbor lock button, holding it
in firmly while turning the blade wrench
clockwise. The arbor lock will engage after
turning the wrench. Continue to hold the
arbor lock button to keep it engaged while
turning the wrench clockwise to loosen the
arbor bolt.
● Remove the arbor bolt (6), the blade
collar (7) and the blade (8). Do not remove
the inner blade collar (Fig. 12).
NOTE: Pay attention to the pieces removed,
noting their position and direction they face.
Wipe the blade collars clean of any sawdust
