enough to access the blade screw. Lower guard will remain raised due to the position
of the guard bracket screw.

until the lock engages
5. Keeping the button depressed, use the other hand and
the wrench provided to loosen the blade screw. (Turn
clockwise, left-hand threads.)

blade. The inner blade clamp may be left on the
spindle.

to its original position and the
screw tightened before activating
the saw.
• Failure to do so may allow the guard
to contact the spinning saw blade
resulting in damage to the saw and
severe personal injury
