that the power plug has been disconnected from the receptacle before performing any
maintenance or inspection of this tool.
1. Inspecting the saw blade
Always replace the saw blade immediately upon the first sign of deterioration or damage.
A damaged saw blade can cause personal injury and a worn saw blade can cause ineffective operation
and possible overload to the motor.
CAUTION: Never use a dull saw blade. When a saw blade is dull, its resistance to the hand pressure
applied by the tool handle tends to increase, making it unsafe to operate the power tool.
