8. Replacement of Poly-V-Belt
The power of the motor is transmitted to the saw blade by a Poly-
V-Belt. When the Poly-V-Belt is broken or damaged, remove the
belt cover by loosening the four 5mm screws (refer to Fig. 2) and
replace the damaged one with the new one.
When connecting the belt on pulleys, first connect 2 or 3 teeth of
Poly-V-Belt to the grooves of the pulley (A) and pulley (B). Then
turning the pulley (A) and pulley (B), connect all 10 teeth of the belt
to the pulleys.

case with one hand and hold the base at the left end grip section
with the other to carry.
NOTE: Before transporting or carrying, position saw blade
against guard and tighten slide securing knob to stop slide
motion.

10. Lubrication
Lubricate the following sliding surfaces once a month to keep the power tool in good operating condition
for a long time (see Fig. 1 and Fig. 2). Use of machine oil is recommended.
Oil supply points:
*Rotary portion of hinge
*Rotary portion of vise assembly
*Sliding portion of slide pipe (A) and slide pipe (B)
11. Cleaning
Periodically remove chips, dust and other waste material from the surface of the power tool, especially
from the inside of the safety cover with a damp, soapy cloth. To avoid a malfunction of the motor,
protect it from contact with oil or water.
SERVICE AND REPAIRS
All quality power tools will eventually require servicing or replacement of parts because of wear from
normal use. To assure that only authorized replacement parts will be used and that the double insulation
system will be protected, all service (other than routine maintenance) must be performed by an
AUTHORIZED HITACHI POWER TOOL REPAIR CENTER ONLY.
