Install/Remove/Replace The Blade - Delta 26-2240 Manual De Instrucciones

INSTALL/REMOVE/REPLACE BLADE
A 10-inch blade is the maximum blade
capacity of the saw. Larger blades will come in contact with
the blade guards.
Refer to Figure 10.
1.
Make sure the saw is unplugged.
2.
Raise the saw arm to the full upright position.
3.
Rotate the lower blade guard (A) up. Slightly loosen the
blade bolt cover screw (B) until you can move the blade
bolt cover (C) up to expose the blade bolt (D).
Refer to Figure 11.
4.
If replacing the blade, carefully rotate the old blade until
the spindle locks in place.
5.
Using the supplied blade wrench, remove the blade bolt
(D) by turning it clockwise.
NOTE: The blade bolt has left-hand threads.
6.
Remove only the outer blade washer (F) and the blade
(G), leaving the inner blade washer on the spindle.
If inner blade washer has been removed,
replace it before placing blade on spindle. Failure to do so
could cause an accident since blade will not tighten properly.
7.
Press the spindle lock button (E). See figure 12.
8.
Carefully fit saw blade inside the blade guard and guide
it onto the spindle, ensuring the teeth of the blade are
facing down at the front of the saw.
9.
Align the double "D" flats on the blade washer (F) with
the flats on the spindle and fit the washer onto the
spindle.
10.
Lock the spindle by depressing the spindle lock button.
Screw on the blade bolt (D), remembering to thread it
counter clockwise. Tighten blade bolt securely using the
provided blade wrench.
Always install the blade with the blade teeth
and the arrow on the side of the blade pointing down at the
front of the saw. The direction of the blade rotation is also
stamped with an arrow on the upper blade guard.
11.
Replace the blade bolt cover and tighten blade bolt
cover screw securely. Lower blade guard.
12.
Raise and lower the saw arm to ensure that the arm
and blade guard move freely.
Make sure the spindle lock button is not
engaged before reconnecting saw to power source. Never
engage spindle lock button when blade is rotating.
NOTE:
Some illustrations in this manual indicate only portions
of the saw. This is done in order to more clearly show key
areas and components of the saw. Never operate the saw
without all guards securely in place and in good operating
condition.
