[. . . ] 15 STOP BLOCK ASSEMBLY TO INSTALL / REPLACE THE BLADE See Figures 16 - 17. SPINDLE LOCK BUTTON WARNING: A 10 in. blade is the maximum blade capacity of the saw. Never use a blade that is too thick to allow outer blade washer to engage with the flats on the spindle. Larger blades will come in contact with the blade guards, while thicker blades will prevent the blade bolt from securing the blade on the spindle. Either of these situations could result in a serious accident and can cause serious personal injury. n Rotate lower blade guard up and remove screw. Rotate blade bolt cover up and back to expose the blade bolt. n Depress the spindle lock button and rotate the blade bolt until the spindle locks. n Using the wrench provided, loosen and remove the blade bolt.
