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. 3)
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. 7, 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. 12)
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION OF SAW BLADE
MOUNT
(1) After use, blow away sawdust, earth, sand, moisture,
etc., with air or brush them away with a brush, etc.,
to ensure that the blade mount can function smoothly.
(2) As shown in Fig. 13, carry out lubrication around
the blade holder on a periodic basis by use of cutting
fluid, etc.
