Admittedly, I'm a beginner in woodworking or anything relating to carpentry. Experimenting, I exchanged a 8 1/4" blade with a 7 1/4" blade as it was the only one I had on hand and didn't think it was a big deal. Now I find that I can't remove the blade. I'm not sure if I should take the saw to a local repairshop to have them do it for me but I thought I'd sign up and ask a professional online before I went that route.
Every time I try to loosen the nut that holds back the blade, it turns the entire blade but the nut doesn't come off. I tried to find an alternate place on the saw where I thought I should place a second wrench to hold it while I turned the nut, but I couldn't find one.
I was given this miter saw, months ago, by my brother in law and I don't have the instructions for it. I'm afraid if I ask him for help, he may want the saw back.
