sufficient thickness and rated capacity.
The extension cord should be kept as
short as practicable.

If the receptacle only loosely accepts the
plug, the receptacle must be repaired.
Contact a licensed electrician to make
appropriate repairs.
If such a fautly receptacle is used, it may
cause overheating, resulting in a serious
hazard.

environment:
Confirm that the work site is placed under
appropriate conditions conforming to
prescribed precautions.

This unit employs a detachable
mechanism that enables mounting and
removal of saw blades without the use
of a wrench or other tools.
