CAUTION: Be sure that the saw blade is
installed so that the teeth are aligned in the cut-
ting (turning) direction.
CAUTION: Check the arbor hole diameter of
the saw blade before installing the saw blade.
Always use the correct ring for the arbor hole of
the saw blade you intend to use. The size of the
supplied ring(s) varies depending on the country.
• For tool for a 30 mm hole-diameter saw blade,
the ring 30 mm in outer diameter is provided.
• For tool for a 25.4 mm and 25 mm hole-diameter
saw blade, the silver and black rings are pro-
vided. Use the silver ring for 25.4 mm hole-di-
ameter saw blade and the black ring for 25 mm
hole-diameter saw blade.
4. To secure the saw blade in place, hold the outer
ange with the offset wrench, then tighten the hex nut

The riving knife position is factory-adjusted so that
the saw blade and riving knife will be in a straight line.
However, you need to adjust it if the saw blade and
riving knife are not in a straight line.
Loosen the screw on the table insert and remove it from
the main table. Loosen the hex bolts (B) and adjust the
blade guard mounting portion (stay) so that the riving
knife is aligned directly behind the saw blade. Then
tighten the hex bolts (B) to secure the stay and put the
table insert in place.
