Changing the Saw Blade

A
Danger!
Directly after cutting the saw blade
may be very hot – burning hazard! Let
a hot saw blade cool down. Do not
clean a hot saw blade with combusti-
ble liquids.
Risk of injury, even with the blade at
standstill. When loosening and tight-
ening the arbor bolt, the retractable
blade guard must encompass the saw
blade. Wear gloves when changing
blades.
1. To arrest the saw blade, pull the
saw blade lock (59) forward. At the
same time slowly turn the saw blade
by hand, until the saw blade lock
engages.

2.
saw spindle (left-handed thread!).

3. Unlock the retractable blade guard
and open it.
4. Remove the following parts from the
saw spindle:
− arbor bolt (60),
− outer blade flange (61),
− saw blade (62),
− inner blade flange (63).
5. Clean clamping surfaces of:
− saw spindle,
− inner blade flange,
− saw blade,
− outer blade flange,
− arbor bolt.
A
Danger!
Do not use cleaning agents (e.g. to
remove resin residue) that could cor-
rode the light metal components of
the saw; the stability of the saw would
be adversely affected.
Put the inner blade flange (63) on
6.
the saw spindle.
A
Danger!
Fit the inner blade flange correctly!
Otherwise the saw may be blocked, or
the saw blade could work loose! The
inner blade flange is in the correct
position when the chamfered collar
(65) shows to the right and the spring
ring groove (64) shows to the left.

Mount the new saw blade (62) –
7.
observe the rotational direction (the
arrows on both saw blade and blade
guard must point in the same direc-
tion)!
