Blade balance must be maintained at 5/8 oz-in   (19.4 
g-cm) or less.  Failure to keep blades balanced 
causes excess vibration, wear, and shortened life of 
most components of the machine.  

To balance a blade:  
1.   Sharpen blade first.  
2.    Balance the blade at the center.
3.    Attach a 1/8 oz (3.9 g) weight at a distance 5" 

(127 mm) from center on the light end.  This 
should make the light end the heavy end:

 

-    If it does, the blade is balanced.

 

-    If does not, file or grind the heavy end until 

the addition of the weight makes the light end 
the heavy end.

1.    Wear thickly padded gloves to prevent cuts from 

the sharp blade.

2.  Insert the blade bolt, in order, through the conical 

washer (cup side toward the blade, as shown), 
the blade, and the blade spacer.  

3.    Install assembly on the blade spindle.  
4.    Torque the blade bolt to 70 ft-lbs.

Follow these instructions to prevent injury during 
blade removal:
1.  Loosen with a box wrench or a socket and long 

breaker bar.  To gain additional leverage, slip a 
long pipe or thick-walled tube over breaker bar or 
wrench.

2.  Insert wood block A as shown, with grain 

perpendicular to blade, to prevent blade from 
turning when loosening.

3.  Wear thickly padded gloves.  Keep hands clear 

of blade path.  Blades may rotate when bolt 
releases.

Blades may be sharpened by filing or grinding.
