Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any PRECISION BLADE GUIDE SYSTEM The precision blade guide system was designed to improve vertical cut accuracy of the saw blade. the blade is guided laterally by the control guides. This additional blade support reduces run-out and helps maintain the intended cutting angle. Insert the saw blade (teeth in cutting direction) until it latches in the plunger (Fig. When inserting the saw blade, the back of the blade must rest in the groove of the guide roller (Fig. To remove blade, lift tool-less blade change cover up with index finger and thumb and remove blade.
