4.2 Replacing and Aligning the Blades
Replace the blades as necessary. Dull blades will cause the motors to work harder and will result in
decreased cut quality and accuracy. Blade life will vary depending on maintenance of the machine, the
operator, as well as species and condition of wood being sawn.
DANGER!
Before changing the blades, make sure all rotating parts
have come to a complete stop and the motor is shut off completely.
Turn the main switch to the "0" position and disconnect the power cord.
Failing to do so can cause serious injury.
WARNING!
Always wear eye, glove and foot protection when handling
the blades.
See Figure 4-2.
