Adjustments - Ryobi RTS08T Manual Del Operador

WARNING:
Before performing any adjustment, make sure the tool is
unplugged from the power supply and the top button on
the switch is not depressed. Failure to heed this warning
could result in serious personal injury.
To avoid unnecessary set-ups and adjustments, a good
practice is to check your setups carefully with a framing
square and make practice cuts in scrap wood before making
finish cuts in good workpieces. Do not start any adjustments
until you have checked with a square and made test cuts to
be sure adjustments are needed.
REPLACING THE BLADE
See Figures 50 - 52.
Wear gloves and other personal protective equipment when
installing and removing a blade only. DO NOT wear gloves
when operating the saw. DO NOT place gloved hand near
blade when it is in motion.
Use correct blades. Blade kerf width and blade body
thickness must be within the limits stamped on the riving
knife.
 Unplug the saw.
 Remove the blade guard and anti-kickback pawls.
 Lower the saw blade and remove the throat plate.
 Lock the bevel locking lever.
 Raise the saw blade to full height.
 Insert the open end of the blade wrench onto the flats on
the arbor shaft.
 Insert the closed end of the blade wrench over the blade
nut. Holding both wrenches firmly, pull the outside wrench
(right side) forward while pushing the inside (left side) to
the back of the saw. Remove the blade nut and blade
washer.
NOTE: Arbor shaft has right-hand threads.
 Unlock the release locking lever and remove the blade.
To replace the blade with an accessory blade, follow the
instructions provided with the accessory.
To install a standard blade:
 Place the new blade on the arbor shaft (the teeth must point down toward the front of the saw to work properly).
 Place the blade washer and the blade nut over the arbor
shaft. Be sure the flat side of the blade washer faces
the blade and that all items are snug against the arbor
housing. Make sure the blade nut is securely tightened.
Do not overtighten.
NOTE: Arbor shaft has right-hand threads.
 Lock the release lever.
 Rotate the blade by hand to make sure it turns freely.
 Lower the saw blade and reinstall the throat plate.
