The product, in the report: https://www.harborfreight.com/4-in-mighty-mite-table-saw-with-blade-61608.html 4 in. Mighty-Mite Table Saw with Blade Chicago Electric Power Tools- item#61608 Sold by Harbor Freight
Miniature Table Saw sold by Harbor Freight It has a 4 inch blade that spins at 14,000 RPM.
The nut on the blade arbor is threaded such that the direction of rotation will eventually loosen the nut and spin it off the arbor.
The unsecured blade spinning with the inertia of 14,000 RPM is a serious hazard.
Industry standard is to have arbor nuts self tighten with the the normal rotation of the blade.
