Changing Blades (Fig. A, I–L)
IMPORTANT: Most replacement blades come with a round
arbor center opening which must be knocked out so a
diamond-shaped arbor center is exposed. Only blades with
a diamond-shaped arbor center can be used on thissaw.
NOTICE: Never install a blade without removing the knockout.
Lack of blade engagement will cause the blade to come into
contact with other parts of the saw causing tooldamage.
To Remove Knockout

WARNING: ALWAYS use eye protection. All
users and bystanders must wear eye protection that
conforms to ANSI Z87.1.

WARNING: Make sure that bevel adjusting locking
lever is tight and secure after using it to remove
knockout. If blade adjustment shifts while cutting it
may cause binding andkickback.
