See Figure 20, page 19.
WARNINg:
A 7 in. tile cutting wheel is the maximum wheel capacity
of the saw. Never use a wheel that is too thick to allow
wheel washer to engage with the flats on the spindle.
Larger wheels will come in contact with the splash hood,
while thicker wheels will prevent the wheel bolt from
securing the wheel on the spindle. Either of these situ-
ations could result in a serious accident and can cause
serious personal injury.
Unplug the saw.
Remove bevel table.
Slide the hex wrench over the wheel arbor nut. Using
other hand, slide arbor wrench onto wheel arbor.
Hold arbor wrench firmly to prevent the wheel from mov-
ing. Turn arbor nut counterclockwise to loosen.
Remove arbor nut, outer wheel washer, and cutting-
wheel.
Wipe a drop of oil onto inner washer where it contacts
the wheel.
WARNINg:
If inner washer has been removed, replace it before
placing wheel on spindle. Failure to do so could cause
an accident since the wheel will not tighten properly.
Never use wheels that have openings, grooves, or teeth
on this tool.
Place the cutting wheel onto arbor with arrrows on cutting
wheel going in the counterclockwise direction.
Replace outer cutting wheel washer. The double “D”
flats on the wheel washers align with the flats on the
spindle.
Using wheel wrench and arbor wrench, tighten arbor nut
securely.
Replace bevel table.
