Cutting rectangles
CAUTION:
•
Do NOT cut the workpiece as shown in figure K
since this may cause it to be ejected from the vise,
possibly resulting in injury.
Carrying tool
CAUTION:
•
The chain for transportation shall be adjusted to
minimize the accessible zone of the saw blade
before transporting the tool.
Fold down the tool head to the position where you can
attach the chain to the hook on the handle. Grasp the
carrying grip when carrying the tool.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
•
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection
or maintenance.
Replacing saw blade
Continuing to use a dull and worn blade may cause
motor overload and decreased cutting efficiency.
Replace with a new blade as soon as it is no longer effec-
tive.

Replacing carbon brushes
Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep
the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders.
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same
time. Use only identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps.
