Dismounting the blade
(1) Unplug the power cord from the outlet.
(2) Raise the cutting head to the upright position and slide the cutting head completely
toward the rear of the unit and tighten the slide securing knob.
(3) Raise the lower guard to the up position.
(4) Remove the cover plate screw with a Phillips screwdriver.
(5) Place the blade end spanner over the 8 mm bolt.
(6) Locate the spindle lock on the motor.
(7) Press the spindle lock, holding it in firmly while turning the blade clockwise. The
spindle lock will then engage and lock the arbour. Continue to hold the spindle lock,
while turning the spanner clockwise to loosen the 8 mm bolt.
(8) Remove the 8 mm bolt, washer (B) and the blade. Do not remove the washer (A).

NOTE: If the spindle lock cannot be easily pressed in to lock the spindle, turn the 8 mm bolt with 13 mm wrench (standard accessory) while applying pressure on the spindle lock.
The saw blade spindle is locked when the spindle lock is pressed inward.

NOTE: Pay attention to the pieces removed, noting their position and direction they face. Wipe the washer (B) clean from any sawdust before installing a new blade.

Mounting the saw blade
WARNING: Unplug the mitre saw before changing/installing the blade.
(1) Select a 255 mm blade, making sure the rotation arrow on the blade matches the clockwise rotation arrow on the lower guard, and the blade teeth are pointing downward.
(2) Place the blade, washer (B) against the blade. Thread the 8 mm bolt in a
counterclockwise direction.

NOTE: Make sure the flats of the blade collars are engaged with the flats on the arbour shaft. Also, the flat side of the blade collar must be placed against the blade.

(3) Place the blade spanner on the 8 mm bolt.
(4) Press the spindle lock, holding it in firmly while turning the blade counterclockwise. When it engages, continue to press the spindle lock in, while tightening the 8 mm bolt
securely.
(5) Replace the cover plate screw and tighten with a Phillips screwdriver.
(6) Rotate the cover plate and lower guard back to its original position.
(7) Verify the operation of the lower guard does not bind or stick.
(8) Be sure the spindle lock is released so the blade turns freely.

CAUTION: Never attempt to install saw blades larger than 10" (255 mm) in diameter.

Always install saw blades that are 10" (255 mm) in diameter or less.

Changing the blade on a Metabo HPT Sliding Miter Saw is a relatively simple process that can be done in a few easy steps.

First, unplug the saw and make sure that it is not connected to a power source. Then, locate the blade lock button, which is typically located on the side of the saw near the blade. Press and hold the blade lock button, and then use the blade adjustment knob to tilt the blade down to a 45-degree angle.

Next, use the blade wrench that came with the saw to loosen the blade bolt and remove the blade from the saw. Make sure to hold the blade securely as you remove it, as it may be sharp and can cause injury if handled improperly.

Once the old blade has been removed, take the new blade out of its packaging and carefully align it with the saw's arbor. Make sure that the teeth of the blade are facing the correct direction, and then use the blade bolt and blade wrench to secure the blade in place.

Once the blade has been installed, use the blade adjustment knob to return the blade to its original position. Then, release the blade lock button and test the blade by turning on the saw and making a few test cuts. If the blade is cutting correctly and smoothly, you are ready to begin your project.

In summary, changing the blade on a Metabo HPT Sliding Miter Saw is a straightforward process that can be done in a few simple steps. Always make sure to unplug the saw and handle the blade with care to avoid injury. With a little practice, you will be able to easily change the blade on your saw whenever it is necessary.
