Blade change on MacAllister 1500W 210mm sliding mitre saw MMIS210S-B. Safety gotcha near the end!

I change the very worn out blade on my MacAllister 1500W 210mm sliding mitre saw MMIS210S-B, having never done it before and no idea how to. Complete gotcha 8:30 minutes into the video. If you own one of these, please watch for your own safety.

Hi, less than a couple of minutes into your video, I felt inspired to finally remove the well-worn blade on my table saw. It's off, cleaned and ready to be replaced with a ripping blade to work on some softwood. Table saws are, on the whole, easier to work with when it comes to changing blades. It is always a faff with mitre saws as just about everything needs removing, and carefully replacing - checking for missed items - before using. If you are anything like me, I can assure you, that you probably won't remember how to do it next time. But that's what KZbin is for.

Hige thanks pal, juat changed my blade for the very first time thanks to you! I would've stripped that bolt clean trying to take it off the opposite way! Thanks again mate 👍

Thanks Rob, my old rusty MacAllister COD305 DSLM had never had its blade changed. Thanks to you, I managed it (with the wifes help!). Struggled to get middle allen nut off to release the blade, but got there. Then putting it all back to the correct position was a challenge. More like an hour for me, but happy with that 👍

Glad to hear that it helped.

Might help showing us the pin you pushed to lock the saw.
