Tighten it too loosen it.
Most miter saws are like that.

If you can figure out which way he turned it, let me know.
Because it took that wally an hour.
But I still say tighten it.
 
Watched that before I started, the nut is having none of it, even got a neighbour to try it wont budge.
 
I'd never buy a saw with a 6mm hex wrench for blade removal.
Real chinese tat.

You need to try a 6mm hex bit on a 1/2" sq drive adaptor - pull bar, T bar or ratchett.
Ideally a T bar.

Righty tighty, to undo it in this case - the bolt needs to be turned clockwise (Wrong way to normal) to undo it.

If you cannot budge it by hand, try locking the blade and giving the end of the Allen key a sharp tap with a mallet. It might be worth grinding the Allen keys short leg a bit shorter, to make a sharp tap with a mallet more direct.
 
Tried the hammer but will try the Allen key shortening and have another go.

Will try the ratchet/tbar 2, thanks guys let's see how tomorrow goes!
 
It's a 2 minute job.
Every time someone says this on building sites, things go tits up and everyone ends up staying late. :ROFLMAO:

Op, have you read the instructions?
You know, that booklet that everyone chucks in the bin as soon as they open a new tool.
 
Yes read the instructions, neighbour tried his impact driver on it but still wouldn't budge
