Maintenance
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts from Harbor Freight Tools.
Failure to use identical replacement parts will void the warranty.
1. Always keep the motor housing clear of any debris.
2. Wipe the tool clean regularly with a clean cloth or dry brush. Never use solvents or harsh
cleaners.
3. Keep the saw blade clean by regularly removing any oil or debris.
4. Inspect the power cord before each use. If any damage exists, have it replaced by a quali-
fied technician.
5. If you see any sign of saw blade slippage, make sure blade tension is correct.
6. No motor lubrication is required. Under normal operating conditions, the bearings are
sufficiently lubricated for the life of the machine.
7. When not using the tool for long periods of time, remove the saw blade.
Cleaning or replacing the Carbon Brushes (4).
1. Unscrew the Brush Cap (5).
2. Carefully slide out the Carbon Brushes (4). Do not force or bend the spring attached to

3. Examine the springs for dirt or wear. To remove dirt, lightly rub with a common pencil eraser.
If the springs are very dirty, stretched, or worn at all, replace them with new ones.

bend them or catch them on the side of the cylinder. Carefully screw on the Brush Cap
