■ INSTALLING THE BLADE
• Do not install or remove the
blade while the engine is in
operation.
• Use ZENOAH’s genuine
replacement blades and metal
fixtures when installing the
blade.
• When installing or removing the
blade, fix the machine securely,
and wear robust gloves.
•The blade turns
counterclockwise (viewed from
the gear case). When using an
inside-out blade, check the
direction of the blade before
installing it. In particular, if you
install a chip saw in the wrong
direction, the chips might break
and scatter.
INSTALLING THE METAL BLADE
1. Remove the blade mounting bolt
which is temporarily fastened in
the gear shaft (and which can be
loosened by turning it clockwise as
it is a left-handed bolt) and the
outer holder.
2. Put the blade on the blade rest
plate with the blade surface on
which there is writing facing
toward the gear case, then fit the
hole of the blade to the projecting
part of the blade rest plate
correctly.
3. Put the outer holder into the gear
shaft with its convex surface facing
toward the blade.
4. Put the bolt cover on the outer
holder, stop the whirl of the blade
rest plate with the L-shaped round
rod, and put the spring washer into
the blade mounting bolt (left-
handed bolt). Then, tighten the
bolt firmly.
