HOW TO USE THE CORDLESS
RECIPROCATING SAW
CAUTION
○ Avoid carrying it with your fi nger on the switch. A
sudden startup can result in an unexpected injury.
○ Be careful not to let sawdust, earth, moisture,
etc., enter the inside of the machine through the
plunger section during operation. If sawdust
and the like accumulate in the plunger section,
always clean it before use.
○ Do not remove the front cover (refer to Fig. 6).
Be sure to hold the body from the top of the front
cover.
○ During use, press the base against the material
while cutting.
Vibration can damage the saw blade if the base
is not pressed fi rmly against the workpiece.
Furthermore, a tip of the saw blade can
sometimes contact the inner wall of the pipe,
damaging the saw blade.
○ Select a saw blade of the most appropriate
length. Ideally, the length protruding from the
base of the saw blade after subtracting the
stroke should be larger than the material (see
Fig. 18 and Fig. 20).
If you cut a large pipe, large block of wood, etc.,
that exceeds the cutting capacity of a blade;
there is a risk that the blade may contact with
the inner wall of the pipe, wood, etc., resulting in
damage. (Fig. 19, Fig. 21)
○ To extend the lifetime, the lithium-ion battery
equips with the protection function to stop the
output. Therefore, if the tool is overloaded, the
motor may stop. However, this is not the trouble
but the result of protection function. In this case,
release the switch of tool and eliminate the
causes of overloading.

This tool is equipped with a variable speed controlled
trigger switch. The tool can be turned "ON" or "OFF" by
squeezing or releasing the trigger. The blade plunger
stroke rate can be adjusted from the minimum to
maximum nameplate stroke rate by the pressure you
apply to the trigger. Apply more pressure to increase
the speed and release pressure to decrease speed.
