    Default Removing outer flange washer on circualr saw

    All

    I am changing the blade in my 235mm circular saw. I need some advice on removing the outer flange washer from the arbor shaft.

    The blade retaining bolt has been removed but I have no idea on how to get the outer flange washer off.

    Any assistance will be appreciated

    Thanks, Anthony

    Dear Anthony,

    I reckon it will just pop off if you fully extend the blade (ie. fully lower the motor), turn the saw upside down, and give the blade a gentle sideways tap from behind (ie. under the motor) with a piece of wood (and maybe a hammer...). It wont be screwed on - it's probably just "gummed" itself to the blade.

    Any chance of a close-up photo?

    Best Wishes,
    Batpig.

    Batpig, thanks for the help. Did as you suggested and the washer poped off.

    Regards, Anthony
