changing the saw blade; a box end wrench and open end

wrench.

3. Remove table insert and raise saw blade to its

maximum height.

4. Place the open end wrench (B) Fig. 117, on the flats

of the saw arbor to keep the arbor from turning, and using

wrench (A), turn the arbor nut (C) clockwise. Remove

arbor nut, blade flange and saw blade.

5. Assemble the new blade, making certain the teeth are

pointing down at the front of the saw table and assemble

outside blade flange and arbor nut. With wrench (B) Fig.

9. When the new belts are assembled on the arbor

pulley (F) Fig. 119 and the motor pulley, loosen screw (D)

Fig. 118, and carefully let the motor rest on the belts.

1/4" deflection in the center span of the pulleys, using

light finger pressure. After tension is applied, tighten
