I've just replaced the blade in my GMC SCMS 2400 watt 10 inch - SMS250LS. Now the rotating blade guard does not seem to be correct when the arm is full down

Could someone post a photo of the saw with the arm fully down ??
I need to confirm how far back the blade protector should go ??

I know, I know .... the manual said loosen (do not remove) the two plate screws well now I think I know why !!!! :(

Thanks in advance

Hope this helps.

Funny angle - cause it is in storage!

Thanks Stewart,

It looks the same so it must be OK.

It's just that after reattaching the shield I thought that the shield should have moved 180 degrees as I lowered the arm. As it is it only moves about 90 degrees (as per your photo).

Thanks again I've just tried it and it seems work OK
