Be sure to match the arrow on the blade to the one on the saw.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nAnother thing to pay attention to is the small diamond located around the blade’s arbor hole. This diamond shape is designed for worm drive saws and will need to be knocked out with a hammer or other blunt instrument.<\/p>\n
Don’t do this if your saw is a sidewinder style, as it will cause the blade to slide around and render it ineffective.<\/strong><\/p>\nNow, slide back the blade guard and place the blade over the inner washer. Then replace the outer washer, insert the bolt and hand-tighten it. Then use the wrench to tighten it a little more – don’t overtighten as this can make the blade<\/strong> difficult to remove later on.<\/strong><\/p>\nHand tightening the bolt.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/span>Step 6: Test your Blade<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\nYour new blade is now installed and ready to start cutting. It’s a good idea to make a few test cuts to ensure the blade is installed properly.<\/p>\n
Insert the saw’s battery or plug it into an outlet and make a few cuts in a piece of scrap material. You should notice the new blade performing better than the old worn-out one.<\/p>\n
<\/span>Conclusion<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\nHopefully, you’ve got a good idea of how to change a circular saw blade at this point. The process is more or less the same no matter what type of circular saw you have, so you can apply the above process to multiple saw configurations.<\/p>\n
If you’re unsure of anything, it’s always a good idea to consult your saw’s owner’s manual, as it will contain any specific steps that might be relevant to your particular saw.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
