ASSEMBLY
 Place the saw on its side with the spindle facing up.
 Depress and hold the spindle lock button and remove the
blade screw and outer blade washer.
NOTE: Turn the blade screw counterclockwise to remove.
NOTICE:
To prevent damage to the spindle or spindle lock,
always allow motor to come to a complete stop
before engaging spindle lock.
NOTE: Do not run the saw with spindle lock engaged.
 Wipe a drop of oil onto the inner blade washer and outer
blade washer where they contact the blade.
WARNING:
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.
 Fit the blade inside the slot in the base and onto the
spindle.
 Replace the outer blade washer. Ensure the outer blade
washer engages with the recesses on the inner blade
washer.
 Depress and hold the spindle lock button, then replace
the blade screw. Tighten the blade screw securely by
turning it clockwise.
 Return the large wrench to the storage area.
 Place the saw in the upright position and move the plunge
control lever to the plunge cut position before attempt-
ing a cut.
NOTE: Some downward pressure may be needed to release
from the blade change position. The saw will spring back
once released.
NOTE: Never use a blade that is too thick to allow outer
blade washer to engage with the recesses on the inner
blade washer.
REMOVING THE BLADE
See Figures 1 - 4, page 18.
 Remove the battery pack from the saw.
 Remove the large wrench from the storage area.
NOTE: Two wrenches are included with the saw, a small
one for the track and a large one for the blade.
 Place the plunge control lever in the blade change
position.
 Lock the saw in the blade change position as previously
described.
NOTE: When the saw is lowered into the blade change
position, a portion of the blade and riving knife extend
beyond the base. Ensure the saw is positioned to provide
adequate clearance before putting it in the blade change
position.
 Position the saw on its side as shown, depress the spindle
lock button, and remove the blade screw by turning it
counterclockwise.
 Remove the outer blade washer.
 Carefully push the back of the blade up and off of the
spindle.
 Remove the blade by sliding it out of the slot in the base.
ASSEMBLING TRACKS
See Figures 5 - 6, page 19.
Tracks can be used individually or assembled together to
fit the size of your project. Before use, all tracks should be
assembled and properly aligned, and the rubber cut strip
should be cut.
To assemble tracks:
 Place the tracks upside down on a flat, level work space.
NOTE: Two tracks are provided with the saw. One has the
connectors preinstalled and the other does not.
 Using the small wrench, loosen the screws securing the
connectors to the track.
NOTE: Two wrenches are included with the saw, a small
one for the track and a large one for the blade.
 Align the tracks and slide the connectors across the joint
and into the slot of the next track. Place the connectors
approximately half way into each track and tighten the
screws to secure one track.
NOTE: The tracks are machined to fit together tightly
along the ends. However, before tightening the remaining
screws, place a 12 in. or longer straight edge, carpenter's
square or level along the long edges to make sure the
pieces are perfectly aligned. Skipping this step could
compromise the accuracy of the saw's performance.
 Align the long ends of both tracks against the straight
edge, carpenter's square or level. Holding both pieces
together, tighten the remaining screws to secure the con-
nectors to the other track.
NOTE: After tightening the screws, check again with the
straight edge to ensure the tracks are perfectly aligned.
Each track has a rubber cut strip running along the edge.
Before cutting a workpiece using the track, the rubber
cut strip must be trimmed away. Refer to "Using the
Track" in the Operations section.
