While doing that you will no doubt gouge the blade into the cast iron blade guard as there is almost no clearance between the blade and the cast mount.Having discovered all that I mounted the second diamond tip blade. The saw is also noisy and rattles badly.I regret the day I ever bought this saw. This product arrived with a wobble on the saw blade. I soon found out that to change the saw blade you have to disassemble the saw. The adjustment is by set screw and has no method to slightly adjust, it just moves any way it wants. Removed the nuts to get the blade off requires two very large metric wrenches. There is no facility for doing this except by trial and error.
The saw has near zero adjustment in blade height. After all that there is more bad news.
Be sure the unit is unplugged as it is easy to trip the power switch, which now has the ground removed and the motor detached from the cast mount with a sort of sharp carbide blade attached. Further investigation showed that the motor shaft was bent.
I decided to try the other blade and see if it wobbled. It wobbled too.
It is an unmitigated piece of [.]. To change the blade you must remove the motor as well as the safety ground, essentially every screw on the machine must be removed.
When the saw is to be reassembled the blade must be realigned or it will cut at an angle.
At this price point, you are much better off with the
Do Not buy this I should have paid more attention to the describtion. This is too dangerous to be a toy and to little to be anything but a toy.
Blade is not true enough to do fine work. They will not clear the bracket for the cover. A great idea for small work, but designed poorly. The built in blade cover prevents cutting long pieces. Such a great idea if designed properly. High speed, but no power. Even cutting 1/4" plywood bogs it down.
I fixed the mis alignment of the parts. The product I received would have shattered the blade if I had turned it on before examining it throughly. Nobody can accurately cut with such a device. I turned it on and found that the blade wobbled 2 millimeters. As received the blade hit the housing AND the table. I have repacked it and want my money back.
