2. Releasing the locking pin
When the power tool is prepared for shipping, its main parts are
secured by a locking pin.
Move the handle slightly so that the locking pin can be disengaged.
NOTE: Lowering the handle slightly will enable you to disengage
the locking pin more easily and safely.
The lock position of the locking pin is for carrying and
storage only.

BEFORE USING
1. Make sure the power source is appropriate for the tool.
WARNING: Never connect the power tool unless the available AC power source is of the same
voltage as that specified on the nameplate of the tool.
Never connect this power tool to a DC power source.
2. Make sure the trigger switch is turned OFF.
WARNING: If the power cord is connected to the power source with the trigger switch turned
ON the power tool will start suddenly and can cause a serious accident.
3. Check the saw blade for visible defects.
Confirm that the saw blade is free of cracks or other visible damage.
4. Confirm that the saw blade is attached securely to the power tool.
Using the supplied 10mm box wrench, tighten the bolt on the saw blade spindle to secure the saw
blade.

contact with the saw blade during operation of the tool.
Always check that the lower guard moves smoothly and covers
the saw blade properly.
