the blade tilt to 0º (refer to Handwheel
Adjustments on page 14).
2. Remove the arbor nut and collar as described
in the Blade Installation/Replacement on page
12, steps 3-4.
Removing the dust chute:
3. Remove two socket head button screws (D, E)
with 4mm and 5mm hex wrenches respectively.
4. Through the opening on the left side of the
cabinet, remove the hose (Inset 1, 2) by
twisting and pulling back on the dust port (F).
Take the entire assembly (Inset 2) out through
the side opening.
Do not replace the arbor nut and collar at this time,
but proceed to the Blade Installation/Replacement
section (following page).
