Use and Care Manual

WARNING: Wear safety gloves when handling saw blades to

prevent injuries from accidentally contacting the blade tip.

1. Unplug your mini circular saw from the power source.

2. Press down the spindle lock (Fig. 1) to prevent the blade from spinning.

With the spindle lock pressed down, use the included M6 hex wrench to

loosen the arbor screw by turning it clockwise (Fig. 2).

3. Remove the arbor screw, washer and outer flange.

4. Push the blade release switch (Fig. 3) and swing the base plate upwards.

Carefully remove the existing blade.

5. With the base plate swung upwards as in Step 4, slide the new saw blade

onto the spindle. Make sure the blade teeth beneath the base plate are

pointing forward and the arrows printed on the blade point in the clock-

wise direction.

6. Replace the outer flange washer. Press the spindle lock (Fig. 1 - 1) and

replace the arbor screw and washer. Fully tighten the arbor screw by turn-

ing it counterclockwise with the hex wrench.

NOTE: The quality of the cut depends on the condition of the saw

blade. Never use a dull, rusty, or damaged blade. Before operation,

check the condition of the blade and replace if the blade is worn-out or

damaged.

WARNING: To avoid injury from accidental startups, be sure that the tool is switched off and discon-

nected from the power supply before inspecting the unit, making adjustments or changing accessories.

ASSEMBLY & ADJUSTMENTS

INSTALLING/REPLACING THE SAW BLADE (Fig. 1 & 2)

Use mini circular saw blades with 3-1/4 inch diameter and 3/8 inch arbor. Do not use a blade that does not match

the diameter or arbor size. The thickness of the included blades are 1 mm on the body and 1.6 to 1.8 mm on the

blade teeth. Do not use a blade too thick that will prevent the arbor screw from properly securing the blade. Re-

placement saw blades (Model 36703BW, 36703BM and 36703BT) can be purchased from wenproducts.com.

tool comes with three blades: a wood-cutting blade (pre-installed), a metal-cutting blade and a tile-cutting blade.
