NOTE:
If the inner flange is removed be sure to install it on
•
the spindle with its protrusion facing away from the
blade. If the flange is installed incorrectly the
flange will rub against the machine.
WARNING:
Before mounting the blade onto the spindle,
•
always be sure that the correct ring for the blade's
arbor hole you intend to use is installed between
the inner and the outer flanges. Use of the incorrect
arbor hole ring may result in the improper mounting of
the blade causing blade movement and severe
vibration resulting in possible loss of control during
operation and in serious personal injury.
To install the blade, mount it carefully onto the spindle,
making sure that the direction of the arrow on the surface
of the blade matches the direction of the arrow on the
blade case.

secure the center cover. Release the handle from the
raised position by pulling the stopper pin. Lower the
handle to make sure that the blade guard moves properly.
Make sure the shaft lock has released spindle before
