To remove a blade:
Unplug the saw.
Release the blade tension by lifting up the blade tension

then lifting the blade from the upper blade holder (C) and

To install a blade:
Place the new blade through the opening in the table
insert with the teeth to the front of the saw and pointing
down toward the work table.
• Hook the new blade in the recess of the lower blade holder (D).
Pull up on the blade, press down on the upper arm and position the upper end of the blade in the slot on
the upper holder (C).
Pin-end blades are thicker for stability and for faster
assembly. They provide faster cutting on a variety of
materials.

Adjust the blade tension by turning the blade tension lever. Turn it clockwise will increase blade tension and
turn it counterclosewise will reduce blade tension.
