(4) When you release the lever, the spring force will
return the lever to the correct position
automatically. (Fig. 9)
(5) Pull the back of the saw blade two or three times
by hand and check that the blade is securely
mounted. When pulling the blade, you will know
it is properly mounted if it clicks and the lever
moves slightly. (Fig. 10)
CAUTION:When pulling the saw blade, be
absolutely sure to pull it from the
back. Pulling other parts of the blade
will result in an injury.
2. Dismounting the blade
(1) Turn on and off the switching trigger several
times so that the lever can jump out of the front
cover completely. Thereafter, turn off the switch
and remove the battery. (Fig. 5)
CAUTION:Be absolutely sure to keep the switch
turned off and the battery removed
to prevent any accident.
(2) After you have pushed the lever in the direction
of the arrow mark shown in Fig. 6, turn the blade
so it faces downward. The blade should fall out
by itself. If the blade doesn’t fall out, pull it out
by hand.
CAUTION:Never touch the saw blade immediately
after use. The metal is hot and can easily
burn your skin.
WHEN THE BLADE IS BROKEN
Even when the saw blade is broken and remains
inside the small slit of the plunger, it should fall out
if you push the lever in the direction of the arrow
mark, and face the blade downward. If it doesn’t fall
out itself, take it out using the procedures explained
below.
(1) If a part of the broken saw blade is sticking out
of the small slit of the plunger, pull out the
protruding part and take the blade out.
(2) If the broken saw blade is hidden inside the small
slit, hook the broken blade using a tip of another
saw blade and take it out. (Fig. 11)
