Hi there. I’ve had my saw for about a year now, and the old blade is finally ready to come off. I bought a mk303, and the bushing is really tight on the arbor as well as fitting into the blade. Is this the norm? I’m not quite sure if the blade is seating all the way on the bushing when I put the flange and nut on and the blade visibly wobbles when I turn it on. Can anyone. Add some wisdom as I learn how to do this? Thanks in advance.

Goiter, if the old blade did not wobble and you are sure both flanges and shaft nut are tightened properly then your blade does not run true. It is easy to replace with the old blade and double check alignment. Did your new blade need a shaft adapter washer? Like Manofglass said the blade will still cut but you get shorter blade life and uneven wear.
