    Thanks so much guys, I’m looking forward to finally using this saw. Yes, the blade is behind the knurled knob, it’s just kind of hanging there. It was after taking the pics that I went back and fiddled with it a bit more and figured out that the blade goes in front of it. I wanted to make fancy birdhouses, and I’ve never used it. I’ve had three people try to help me with it, and no one was able to figure it out! Obviously over-thinking it. Thanks again. Joanne

    I have a 20 year old Delta 40-540 that I have never used because I can’t figure out how to insert the danged blade into the top holder. It looks like it should be pretty simple, but no matter what I do, the blade just slides back out. The manual I downloaded is not as clear as I’d like. There is a lever that releases the “grip” and a knurled screw that adjusts it as well. It appears that the top of the blade just gets wedged in between the front part of the “grippers” like a pair of pliers and that’s it? Any suggestions as to what I may be doing wrong would be much appreciated. Edit: I may have figured out that the top of the blade simply gets gripped in the front edge of the top blade holder. I haven’t tried actually running it and cutting something with it yet, so I don’t know if it will hold or not. May have been overthinking the blade installation to be something more complex than that. Joanne
