out downwards.
• Carefully clean the flange screw (28), outer flange
(29) and inner flange (31).
• Fit and fasten the new saw blade (6) in reverse order.
• Attention! The cutting angle of the teeth, in other
words the direction of rotation of the saw blade (6) must
coincide with the direction of the arrow on the housing.
• Before continuing your work make sure that all safe-
ty devices are in good working condition.
