Craftsman z6000 blade swap...

[mrdowntown]

Thanks guys/gals...lots to think about here as far as how I proceed.

I'm being thick/dense here... but the threads on the bolt...Up or down shouldn't change the way I'd loosen it..right lol. Anyway, to Keep it simple for my brain, right hand thread means I spin bolt holding blade clockwise to tighten and left, or counterclockwise to loosen. Am I thinking about this correctly.

Thanks for the feedback btw!

yes, right hand threads, clockwise to tighten CCW to loosen

If I have a blade that gets stuck badly I change the bolt. Once that happens it tends to happen again because the bolt gets damaged. If you look at the threads under magnification you will likely see jagged edges - chatter marks I call them.
