Never mind left tilt vs. right tilt -- Leon nailed it with a simple rule:
whichever direction the blade spins, that's the direction you turn the arbor
nut to remove it. If you like, think of the saw teeth as directional arrows
showing you which way to turn the wrench.

You guys are right, that's the easiest rule to remember.

But Doug, what if my saw teeth have a negative hook angle? :-p


Doesn't matter -- the teeth still point forward, no?

I was joking.
First time I changed a blade, and for a long time after that, I used a
thin screwdriver in a gullet. Next saw I got had two wrenches with it,
and I was like, "Oh, so I don't need a screwdriver." :-)
