CAUTION: Be absolutely sure to keep the switch
turned off and the battery removed to
prevent any accident.
(2) After you have turned the holder sleeve in the
direction of the arrow mark shown in Fig. 7 and
secured it, turn the blade so it faces downward.
The blade should fall out by itself. If the blade
does'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 turn the holder sleeve in the direction of the
arrow mark, secure the holder sleeve, and face the
blade downward. If it doesnt 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) Periodically lubricate the saw blade mount with
machine oil through the semicircular slit at a state
where the holder sleeve is turned in the direction
of the arrow mark shown in Fig. 7. (Fig. 13)
NOTE:
If the saw blade mount is used without proper
cleaning and lubrication, the rotation of the holder
sleeve may be hampered by sawdust and particles
of dust, disabling you to remove the saw blade
with your fingers.
In such a case, hold the periphery of the holder sleeve lightly using a pair of pliers and
the like, and turn the holder sleeve to left and right little by little. After the saw blade
has been successfully removed, be absolutely sure to clean it up with air, etc., carry
out proper lubrication, and then check and see if the saw blade mount can function
smoothly.
