Wen 36725, Manual

WARNING: 

Wear safety gloves when handling saw blades to 

prevent injuries from accidentally contacting the sharp blade tip.

1. Unplug your circular saw from the power source.

2. Press down the spindle lock (Fig. 9 - 1) to prevent the blade from spin-
ning.

3. Using the M6 blade wrench provided, remove the arbor bolt by turning 
it counterclockwise (Fig. 10).

4. Remove the washer and outer flange washer (Fig. 11).

5. Lift the lower guard and remove the existing blade.

6. Lift the lower guard and slide the new saw blade onto the spindle. Make 
sure the arrows printed on the blade are turning in the counterclockwise 
direction and the blade teeth are pointing up.

7. Replace the outer flange washer (Fig. 11).

8. Press the spindle lock (Fig. 9 - 1) and replace the arbor bolt and washer. 
Tighten the arbor bolt securely by turning it clockwise with the wrench 
while holding the spindle lock.

9. Check to make sure the blade is properly installed and spins freely 
inside the housing. Check that the arbor screw is tightened and the blade 
does not wobble while spinning.

MAINTENANCE

REPLACING THE SAW BLADE 

The quality of the cut depends on the condition of the saw blade. Never use a dull, rusty, or damaged blade. Before 
operation, check the blade and replace if the blade is worn-out or damaged.

Use circular saw blades with 7-1/4-inch diameter and 5/8-inch arbor size. Do not use a blade that does not match the 
diameter or arbor of the saw. The thickness for the included blade is 1.3 to 1.4 mm on the body and 2 to 2.1 mm 
on the blade teeth. Do not use a blade that is too thick that prevents the arbor bolt from securing the blade on the 
spindle. Replacement saw blades (Model 36725B) can be ordered from wenproducts.com. Note that parts that wear 
down over the course of normal use (like saw blades, carbon brushes, etc.) are not covered by the two-year warranty.
