arbor center opening which must be knocked out so a
diamond-shaped arbor center is exposed. Only blades with
a diamond-shaped arbor center can be used on this saw.

knockout. Lack of blade engagement will cause the
blade to come into contact with other parts of the saw
causing tool damage.

conforms to ANSI Z87.1.
